Contraceptive pill

[Darcy23]

Just a thought. I've had herpes for a long time. Since 6th April I've had non stop outbreaks after nothing for ages. I went back on the contraceptive pill near the end of march. Could this be contributing to these horrid outbreaks? Is there any evidence to suggest this?

I would go to the sexual health clinic or speak to your doctor to see what they would suggest.

I guess it makes sense if you feel you are getting the outbreaks since going on this new pill..maybe its down to hormones as they say having your period could trigger an outbreak.

Hi! Thanks for your reply. My Dr has very little knowledge. She actually doesn't believe my current outbreak is herpes as I've just had 4 outbreaks back to back. Thankfully I've managed to get a hospital appointment on Monday so I'll quiz them.
