Hi all! My partner is HSV negative and has T1D, whereas I am HSV positive. Does anyone know if my HSV could affect her in anyway since she has T1D? T1D is an auto immune disease so how does it get affected by a virus? Thank you

Hey guys! I’ve just recently joined this forum and reading through this is really opening my eyes to how supportive everyone is and I’d love to do my part too! I’m a 24 year old female in the UK, living with GHSV1. My experience hasn’t been easy either so feel free to get in touch, whether you’re female/male if you need any kind of support (wherever you may be in the world) ☺️

I’m in the UK so no CVS for me, will definitely take a look at Boots to see what I can find! ☺️

Hey I got the same thing! But since I started using baby wipes (sorry environment ☹️) instead of regular tissue when going to the toilet, it really calmed it down a lot. Thanks for the cotton pad tip - will need to take a look at this too!

Hey, Everytime I’ve had sex since I tested positive (my partners have always been aware that I have genital HSV1) I have bled heavily. After speaking to doctors they told me its probably just tears/bruises. But part of me feels like its related to the herpes since I never experienced bleeding like this before. I was wondering if anyone else had experienced this too and what they’ve done? Thanks
