  1. He is symptomatic. I'm not sure about the difference between our bloodlines, but I want to be sure of the possibilities. I figured I could get the other virus through oral sex. But I really wanted to know if it's possible and how likely is it to get Ghsv1 or Ghsv2 just with vaginal/anal sex from a partner with a different virus than mine. You understand? If I already have Ghsv1 (an example) and my partner Ghsv2, will I get Ghsv2 from him genitally and get the 2 viruses on my genitals?
  2. Hello everyone! I met someone who has herpes recently and had a question. I haven't read anything like it around here. But if, for example, I have Ghsv1 and my partner Ghsv2, Can we get each other's virus? Can we get both viruses in the genital At the same time? If yes, would that increase our number of outbreaks?
  3. Thank you both for your answers. It's really annoying because it's clearly something I only started to feel after I got infected. However, I correct that the pressure is not internal. It's actually all over the vulva, just like the pain sensation. Internal is just white secretion. They happen eventually. I still haven't noticed if there's a specific time frame, maybe once or twice a month. Usually the pain and pressure last for a few hours, but the discharge can stay for days. Thank you Grace for taking the time to ask the clinic about this!Thank you Grace for taking the time to ask the clinic about this!
  4. Hello everybody. I had my primary infection just over two months ago. since then, I haven't had the familiar herpes blisters or sores. But sometimes I feel a sense of pressure and pain throughout the vulva. I also notice a white discharge that was also present in my first infection. Does anyone else feel that way? Could this be an outbreak? Maybe an internal outbreak? I remember that on the worst days of the first outbreak I felt this pressure and pain too. It is common?
  5. You love him. You can see it in every word. I'm sure he knows this and that you did everything to protect him. I believe this is what you need to remember. You are so honest! It could simply omit this information and it didn't. You did everything right. Everything you could! Unfortunately when you get it right, you still have minimal risk. But you are not bad. Your attitudes prove otherwise! You can have a clear conscience that you did the right thing, so why wouldn't he love you? Please see yourself with better eyes. Be calm, he is likely to be fine as you had sex before the symptoms started. If you are going to test your boyfriend, it will take at least 12 weeks. Find support in each other. (If it helps, I really believe he's fine). Will be all right!
  6. Thank you Grace. Your knowledge helps me a lot!
  7. Hi, I've read here several times about the percentage per year risk of transmission from women to men and from men to women. Some even cited the numbers considering the use or not of Condoms or antivirals. 4%.2%.1% for women and 10%.5% and 2.5% for men. Could someone here, please, inform me which scientific article, research or study were these numbers taken from?
  8. You are wonderful, Grace! How kind and supportive you are to people you don't even know... You helped me so much! Thank you!
  9. The test fails in some cases and can give false negatives. Could it be that the test failed or that you got it from someone in the past perhaps? This is confusing to me too because if the outbreak was a primary outbreak and the symptoms occurred after sex, isn't that indicative of that person? It's a question I also have.
  10. Well, of course, each one must choose the best way to live with it. Even if you have hsv1 and if you are an atypical person, it would be no different than someone who has hsv2 and spills a bit more. Anyway, what matters is that if someone CHOSE to be with us in a relationship after we've told, is it because they're okay with the risk and why not take the blame off their backs? If you take precautions to keep people as safe as possible (condoms and antivirals and no sex in seizures) and someone is willing to take a 1% risk Because you think you're worth it, why not allow yourself to be loved? You deserve! You see, people with cold sores, including you, continue to kiss on the mouth even though it's transmissible. Why would sex be different? We know this is prejudice about how we got it: having sex (taboo). But if you think about it, it's the exact same virus in a different location. Anyway, I hope you're okay and can process this better.
  11. First of all, I'm sorry for what you went through. I feel like you tried to take your own life. Nobody deserves this. The betrayal of people with HSV you've met is, yes, a reflection of character. But if they hadn't contracted, it would still be the same. So it's not about contracting hsv. Look at your case, you weren't doing anything wrong and contracted. It was like that with me too. Where did your mother get this information? You have genital herpes, not leprosy. You can hug people safely, yes. It's really unusual and I've never heard of anyone getting the same virus elsewhere in the body after such a long time. Many people with oral and genital viruses have relationships and children. The woman from "life with herpes" (you can find them on Instagram or YouTube) has both and is happy and her husband never got her virus. hsv1 is generally not very problematic on the genitals. It may never appear again and generally doesn't spill much in that region. In addition to being unlikely to transmit from genital to genital. I know how you feel. I'm at the same stage. I also abstained for 2 years to finally be with someone and get it. Let's suffer from this for a while. But we cannot give the power to kill ourselves.
  12. I read about it too. Elimination is greatest in the first year and in those people who experience symptoms frequently. If you are asymptomatic for many years, it is because the virus remains inactive most of the time. Not all doctors know a lot about herpes. I have the impression that there are those who do not give us due importance. Infectious doctors generally have more knowledge about herpes. But it is important to remember that we are not transmitting the virus all the time. Only a few days a year when viral shedding occurs. We take precautions all the time, as there is no way of knowing which days the virus will be on the skin, as the shedding has no symptoms.
  13. What an interesting question.Theoretically, if you already have Hsv1, you have antibodies against it and should not get the virus elsewhere in the body. Another point is that a person who has oral herpes should not be concerned about having oral sex on someone who has genital hsv1, because the person will not reinfect. You can't get the same virus twice in the same place, because it's already there. As for receiving oral sex from someone who has genital herpes, it's perfectly fine, as transmission occurs through the genitals rather than the mouth. If the recipient does not have genital herpes, there is no risk of getting herpes that way for both of you. Whoever has genital Hsv1 sheds much less virus, making transmission unlikely anyway. I believe that especially for those who already have Hsv1 on account of the antibodies. But I don't know if we can say that the risk of having genital herpes from hsv1 is zero when they already have it orally. From the information we have, it seems safe, but only a doctor can give you certainty. It is hard to say that the risk would be zero. I hope someone else answers. It's an interesting discussion.
  14. As far as I know, and I'm not a doctor, the virus moves along the nerves in the regions adjacent to where you have outbreaks. So you can't guarantee that there will never be a virus in your genitals. Although it seems that in you they do not move because they always appear in the same place. Really only a doctor could answer for sure.
  15. definitely it would be awesome if antiviral lubricants existed, they would be like 70% alcohol (which kills coronavirus) only in a herpes version!! There should be products that do not allow viral replication in the skin.
