Hello, Thanks for the query. It's important to know your HIV status. You must include lentils, dairies, green leafy veggies, eggs, nuts, fruits and lean meat in your daily diet. Walk regularly and do deep breathing yoga or meditation. Stress and lack of sleep can reduce immunity so is smoking and excess of alcohol. Hope this answers your query. Regards,

Brief Answer: oral thrush is uncommon in people with good immunity.. Detailed Answer: Oral thrush is uncommon in healthy people. oral sex can also cause thrush. Please check your immune status and avoid anxiety as it can also cause decreased immunity. Your treating doctor would know about the test to check your immunity. Don't worry too much. Maintain good oral hygiene. Regards
