If I have been playing a flute for several months, would it be easy to learn how to play an oboe?

Flute and oboe embouchure is quite different. It would be very difficult to switch, embouchure-wise, but fingerings are actually very similar. Air pressure and direction would also have to change a bit to get an acceptable tone (meaning a good sound). If you've played reed instruments in the past, it might be easier to switch. Remember, the difficulty level will be different for every player. What may be easy for you might be hard for another. I recommend looking up tips from professionals or taking lessons.
