Go find a new Dr!

Which condoms tend to work best? Are there any that are better for not transmitting herpes? I'm female and my male partner has genital hsv2. I wish there were condoms that would cover the base of the penis, where he tends to have outbreaks. I'm guessing this is where asymptomatic shedding occurs most for him.

I just started dating a man and disclosed to me his h+ status. It was his first time disclosing, so I hope I handled it correctly and didnt cause him any unnecessary pain. I dont want to let his h+ status ruin a good thing, so I'm here to learn. I have been reading through the articles and forums on this website. Thank you for the wealth of knowledge you all have shared! I haven't come across any posts from h- outsiders like me yet. I hope you all dont mind my participation here. Do you guys have any words of encouragement or advise?
