You’ll only pass it would contact to the Area you have the outbreak if it’s your lip yes kissing can pass it when an outbreak present or you feel it coming on I would avoid kissing or sharing anything. If it’s below the waist kissing should not be an issue however during oral is an outbreak is coming on or present your partner can get it orally

Thank you sooooo soooo much

Have you found anything I’m having the same issue

Not for me but asking for a friend. They have hsv 2 and it’s been over a year and they have had multiple outbreaks sometimes back to back and it being coming an issue for them and take a toll on them. Are there any remedies besides diet and expertise. Any tricks you guys can recommend I feel bad because I have type 1 and only 3 known ob in 5 years so I don’t know how to help. Are there any things that trigger hsv 2 more than 1

This happens to me too I’m not sure that it’s considered an out break or not but I really don’t understand it either. If you find an answer please share. It’s usually after we have sex two days in a row I’ve had it 5 years and my first was blisters but I also had one a couple months ago that we’re blisters

Thank you so much for your feed back surprisingly this was no where on the Internet and it’s my first relationship with someone else who shares hsv so I’m new to this type seeing as I have 1.

I’ve had genital hsv1 for over 5 years and it’s caused minimal issues more annoying than anything! But I started a new relationship and he has HSV 2 Genital. I’m confused by the precaustions I need to take. We have already had sex protected and once unprotected and we were fully disclosed with each other. But I can’t seem to find answers. Can I get type 1 and 2 Genital and of so how severe is that? And what should I expect. If u have type 1 genital does that lesson the chance of type 2 genital. I’m very confused and there’s nothing on google that helps. I really like this guy but I’m scared of making my situation worse. Im also very confused on how it affects man. Do they have it on their penis when there’s an outbreak I just need to know what signs to look for and what I should expect for myself.

I wish I felt good enough to do any of those things I don't even wanna get out of bed Saturday afternoon and Sunday I felt better o thought Maybe I was wrong but checked again and they were there. To I feel like they spread it was so long ago that I don't even remember how my first one went I just remember a lot of tears and weight loss and pain for about a week. This is just more of an irritated feeling that I know is there not so much pain but I feel it

Yes she has always been very helpful thank you

My pharmacy will not give me a refill of my valtrex until Tuesday when my dr is in and I'm in pain now. Anthing I buy in cvs that I can use I have tea tree oil and l-lycine pills. Anthing I can use to reduce pain until I get the medication?

Thank you it's both but I hoped I would never feel the way I I did the first time again and then bam it's like a slap in the face. I though that when it happened again I would just deal with it but all the initial feelings came back

Hey everyone I know it's been awhile and I'm sorry. I guess for a while I forgot I even had hsv1 and I have neglected this site. Clearly I remember again and I wish I Didn't. In October 2013 I was diagnosed and going through a horrible ob and probably in the worst mind state ever. U couldn't deal with the reality of this and it distroyed me. I hate everything I was and couldn't think of living with this forever. Then slowly it got better. Then it was a year and still nothing I felt amazing and lucky. Fast foward to now up until 10 mins ago everything was great. Going from thinking about nothing but hvs 24/7 for months to not thinking about it at all for years at this point. In 10 mins all that heartache depression and pain came back when I discovered my second outbreak in the works. I honestly never expected it would happen again I embedded in my head I was normal and healthy which now I see is bad because all of that pain and depression I hoped I would never expedience again I'm going through almost 3 years later. I'm not sure I can't live my whole like waiting for this next episode. I feel like the past three years have turned back and I'm back to that devisteaing time

I always thought it was nessessary to do it. If I can go with out doing it I will but I always thought it was recommended.

When I was first diagnosed I went to the er thinking I had a uti so they gave me the antibiotics for it then the next day I went to my medical dr and got examined and it def wasn't a uti so I stopped the medicine. I started talking them ghw day I wrote this post and felt better instantly. No sore or pain anymore so I'm pretty sure it was just a uti thank god

I've been afraid to douche for a while because I heard it can bring on an outbreak and I recently had a uti is it safe to douche and which product should I get

So for the bad 2 days I've been feeling uncomfortable. I thought it may be razor burn. But now after I pee it burns but on the inside of feels kind of like a uti. But of course I'm fearful this is the start of my second ob! How can I tell the difference ? I have no bumps or sores just slight burning and it's comfortable. I started taking my meds yesterday just incase and I usually take lysine and I applied tea tree oil.

Thank you same too you!!

Just wanted to stop by and wish everyone happy healthy holidays. Sorry I haven't been on in a while I hope all is well. Also this is my second holiday season since I was diagnosed and if this is your first I just want all of you to know if you don't already it gets better. Honestly sometimes I forget all about it. It's always in the back of my mind but it's not my focus any more I live a normal life not much has changed since before I got it. I'm lucky I have only had one known ob which was my first and I hope and pray it was my last ( knock on wood and fingers crossed ). Any way like I said it gets better just one day at a time. Best wishes in the new year xo

I used to use bactine to clean my belly ring I have some in my boyfriends house I never had and warning it was coming until I felt the pain and I have been on and off valtrex the past few weeks. By the way I don't know if you remember but I had those fluid filled bumps on my leg a while back and always thought it was an outbreak finally I went to get it swabbed when it came back and when she saw it she told me to start antivirals everyday but then the test came back negative. It's not h just thought I would update you lol but anyway since then I pop a valtrex every week or so just to stay outbreak free lol

I know people that get cold sores all the time when they are getting a cold is that the same thing or since I already have hsv1 will my cold sore be different

I think it was passed orally to me

So I think I have cold sore on my lip I noticed some pain yesterday and started taking valtrex. There is no sore yet just a red area almost like a pimple inside the skin it doesn't each of tingle it just hurts like crazy!! I have never had a cold sore and my only outbreak was my first over a year ago and it was vaginally. I've but abreva on my lip but I don't know what else to do. I do have HSV1 but like I said it wasn't on my lip will this be a regular cold sore I see ppl have or since I bave hsv1 will I start breaking out all over my mouth!? I'm scared lol

I found out a year ago and I have hsv 1 and I am fine look at my latest post and I hope it helps you. And you answer you question yes the person who falls in love with you will accept it if they really love you and you will have the same sex life you had before it. It's more of a mind game that your playing right now you and only you can make your self be okay every day it gets easier and easier I forget I have it sometimes I'm not gonna lie other times I think of it daily but it doesn't make as big as an impact as it did at first it's more or N annoyance feeling then a sad feeling like why do I have to have it its annoying. I have only had one ob which was my first. I have yet to go through a second thank god! But when ever I feel uncomfortable or anything out of the ordinary I use some tea tree oil on the area and with in a day or too I'm back to normal. I libe a normal everyday life and you will too. It has yet to affect my life again since that first ob. I hope I don't wht another but if I do I'm sure I'll be sad and depressed at the time but once it's gone I'll be okay. It's all about what you tell yourself. At the end of the day it's only a rash.

I have the same situation a very understanding boyfriend and we have an amazing relationship and intimate life but it took some time for me as well it's been a year since my diagnoisis and he has not had one symptom I still don't knoe if he passed it on to me or if it was my first relationship (I've only had two partbers) but he has never. Showed signs and he loves me no matter what and still has the same sex drive he had before this so it's really just something you have to work out in your own mind cUz if a man didn't wanna risk it they wouldn't br with you. And statistics show it's very hard for a women to pass it to a man. I am not on antivirals unless I get paranoid and wanna stop something before it happens and he still thank god has never has symptoms him being with you he knows there's a chance and he still chooses to stay he loves you and as long as you cautious u both will be fine when ever I feel uncomfortable or irritated I use some tea tree oil and avoid sex for a day or too and then nothing happens and we're back to our norm. Good luck

You have been the one who has probably helped me the most on here thank you
