What is herpes?
Genital herpes is a sexually transmitted infection that can be passed on through anal, oral and vaginal sex. While herpes is classed as an STI, it can be spread without sexual contact.
There are two type of the herpes simplex virus:
- HSV-1
- HSV-2
HSV-1 is typically associated with cold sores and ulcers which appear around and inside the mouth. HSV-2 is generally attributed to genital herpes specifically.
Herpes can lay dormant in someone for months or years before causing any symptoms. The infection can spread even when there are no visible blisters or sores.
You can catch herpes in a number of ways:
- Anal, oral or vaginal sex with an infected person
- Genital contact with a cold sore during oral sex
- Skin-to-skin contact of the infected area
Even if no symptoms are present on you or your partner, the virus can still be transmitted.
The only way of knowing if you have herpes is to get tested by visiting a local GUM or sexual health clinic, GP surgery or hospital.
What are the symptoms of herpes?
Genital herpes typically causes sores or blisters around the genitals. The affected area can be painful and itchy.
While the virus is dormant, you may not experience any symptoms.
How can I prevent herpes?
Using condoms every time you have sex can minimise the risk of transmitting most STIs, however there may still be genital contact which may spread herpes.
If you know you carry the herpes virus - and can identify when a breakout is about to occur - you can speak to your partner about the risk of infection and take appropriate steps to minimise the risk.
These steps may include:
- Avoiding sex when an outbreak of herpes is present
- Using barrier methods such as condoms and dams with new sexual partners
- Don't share sex toys. Wash them or put a condom over them before using them on another partner
- Taking anti-viral medication to reduce the activity of the virus
Treatments for herpes
While there is no cure for herpes, there are various courses of treatments which can be used to treat the infection.
These treatments include:
These treatments aim to speed up the recovery of breakouts and prevent the virus from spreading to other areas of the body.
