    The virus can be dormant for decades. Funny how no one who gets cold sores, without an outbreak, never tells someone prior to kissing them that they have herpes, yet those diagnosed with genital herpes, with no outbreaks, is supposed to tell a partner prior to sex.

    Just wondering about herpes 2 in unusual areas such as sacrum and buttocks. Wondering if you have experienced this and how would you protect your partner. Especially from viral shedding. Everyone just talks about herpes in genial area and what to do. Seems that the recommendations and real life what people do is different. Wondering if you might at some time do a podcast in this regard.

    So I recently disclosed this to a potential partner things were getting serious and I decided to tell him… it rlly bothered him to the point he ghosted me a few times..Idk what to do or say to him be told me he’s been juggling with it a lot… how do I respond ?

      You can offer to educate him, talk to him. Often people are just scared of the word herpes itself and they run.
      On the other side, he can be just showing his true self. If he ran away for something that minor, then it just means you were not meant to be. I know it's hard to hear, but he'd find something else soon enough that would bother him enough to go.

      Don’t, Use your virus as a tool to vette potential partners. Disclose early, that way you get a response upfront and you don’t get to invested with people who aren’t for you. Use your vetting stage to educate them about HSV. Continue being vulnerable, its your greatest superpower. it’s gonna be uncomfortable for a little while as you navigate your new way of dating and living with HSV 1 or 2. Communication is the key. You will continue to get ghosted by people who don’t understand the facts about HSV, but what we need to do is normalize taking about this virus so that we can one day eradicate it.
      Be well. ❤

    tbh I don't get how promiscuity isn't a factor? It takes 3 months for your body to develop the antibodies that the herpes test looks for. That means you have a 3 month window before the test where you just don't know. You shouldn't give an excuse that you can get it from kissing someone because while you can get oral herpes that way, genital herpes is a lot less likely to be passed through kissing. I say being promiscuous is a factor but it doesn't mean you will have herpes, what you could do is do what porn stars do and have a test every 2 weeks. After 3 months of doing this you now have a 2 week window where you just don't know instead of a 3 month window. But you have to be consistent with it.

    • @lifewithherpes
      @lifewithherpes  3 года назад

      It can take anywhere from 2 weeks up to 6 months for antibodies to develop.

    Can you get type 1 in the genitals if you already have it on the mouth and viceversa?

    • @lifewithherpes
      @lifewithherpes  3 года назад +1

      No. When you get infected, the body starts building up antibodies and once you have those antibodies, if you come in contact with herpes again, the body will recognize it and fight it. Hence, it won’t appear on another part of the body.

    A relative of mine told me that the way you get oral herpes is by bodily fluids. How can you even tell if soemone has oral herpes to where you don’t get infected? Are cold sores pretty much the same thing you get when you have herpes?

    • @lifewithherpes
      @lifewithherpes  Год назад

      Herpes does not live in bodily fluids. It is a skin to skin transmission
      Sadly, oral herpes is so common, because we often kiss & share we care about, and ti doesn't really need to be in a sexual way. So, unless the person has an active cold sore, you cannot really know if they have it or if it's active.

      Yes, technically you can. But the virus dies shortly after leaving the living cell, so way less likely than a direct skin to skin contact.

    Thanks. Someone was showing me what was probably a pimple on his willy, but he said he wouldn’t get checked because if he has it, he has it so why bother. Actually why bother? I feel like it would be important to know for potential partners for one. Are there ways to reduce the chance of infection? Are people with herpes that are in committed relationships and have sex with their partners pretty much guaranteed to transmit herpes to their partners?

    • @lifewithherpes
      @lifewithherpes  Год назад +1

      It's important to communicate. If, at the end of the day, both people don't care, then they don't care. If one is not comfortable, then it's good to either get tested or to move on.
      Yes, herpes can be avoided. There are plenty couples who go through life without infecting their partners.
      As for your other question, here you go. :)

    How is it spread to others?? If i don’t kiss anyone, and just hug or if i touch something and someone else touches the object after me, will they become infected? I am more nervous about my family getting it

    • @lifewithherpes
      @lifewithherpes  Год назад

      It is not transmitted through air, only with skin to skin contact. So, if you have genital herpes, they won't come in contact with it. If you have oral herpes, just don't kiss them while you have an outbreak, or share drinks, etc. Otherwise, they're your family. Human touch is a normal daily occurrence, you should not feel like you're any different.
