If you have genital herpes per say?
    #14673357 - 06/26/11 02:10 AM (12 years, 7 months ago)

Can you ever have kids without infecting your girlfriend/wife?  I've been to three doctors that say I don't and I know I don't have aids, but I don't think they are right.

They might be right but can you have impregnant a women with herpes without her getting it?  Any pills or such?

I have heard that if you have herpes, there is always the possibility that you will infect your partner, even if you are not showing signs.  I am not sure if you are saying that your Dr. says that you don't have it, or if he says that it can't be transmitted. 

There are pills/lotions to treat herpes outbreaks, that actually is maybe where I got this info, one of their commercials.  It always says: '*drug* does not prevent the transmission of HPV or other STDs'

well, humility, you may be wrong about that. herpes is suppressed by your immune system until the system is compromised, then it comes out of 'hiding' in your nervous system. when it comes out of hiding, then it may be available in the blood to be screened for. but usally they swab a sore and do the culture. thats really the only sure way.

OP, i doubt you can infect someone when you don't have a sore. i have simplex 1 (or is it a?) and it comes out on my lips when my immune system is weak. there is no way i'm infecting someone without that sore. thats just how it goes, at least with the kind i have. i'm no doctor. i doubt there are many here on the shroomery. google that shit bro!

I tested positive for simplex 1 (blood test). 
I have never had a cold sore.
Dr. said that I could nonetheless at any point either a. give someone cold sores by kissing b. give someone simplex 1 on their genitals through oral-genital contact.

Be careful with how you word that because it could be interrupted when you say kissing can cause STD's to spread. There are some infectious disease that can spread that way but not any classical STD with drastic consequences. There is a very curable form of herpes that can be spread that way but a week of cream and you are good. Skin to skin as coming into contact with gentiles that are able to pass the disease on IS something everyone should be aware of. 

You can pass on herpes when there is not a flare up. You chances are less likely if there isn't a flare but it's still possible.

dude there is no cure for herpes. cite a source if i'm wrong but i'm pretty darn sure. there are many forms of it and none of them are curable. chickenpox, for example, is a herpevirus. its usually well suppressed but can come out later in life and its called shingles.

You can still have protected sex and not pass it on. Especially if you are not in the middle of a break out, then the chances drop even less. You are correct, thre is no cure only things to aide in suppressing.

> chickenpox, for example, is a herpevirus. its usually well suppressed but can come out later in life and its called shingles.

Chickenpox is caused by the varicella zoster virus.  Herpes simplex is caused by the herpes simplex virus.  Both of these belong to the same viral subfamily, alphaherpesvirinae; however, they have little in common.  Shingles, also known as herpes zoster, is caused by the varicella zoster virus becoming active later in life after having had chickenpox.  Other than the name, there is no relation between shingles and herpes, nor are shingles (herpes zoster) considered a sexually transmitted disease.

Yep.  Actually, you were not that far off... the important parts of your post were correct; especially the bit about herpes having no cure.  I was nitpicking on the rest.

You can, actually, although I'm sure it's less likely.

I've never had a genital herpes outbreak. I do however get cold sores every time my immune system is compromised. If genital herpes outbreaks happen when you have a immune system break down does that mean I'm safe? Or does it mean that I might still have it although in small amounts? If that's the case I should have a lesser chance of passing it on right? I haven't been tested yet, but after reading this thread I fell like I should.

Get tested.  If you are clean, then you will know you are clean and feel better not having to worry.  If you are infected, then you will know you are infected, and can start to deal with the issue in a mature manner.

> If that's the case I should have a lesser chance of passing it on right?

No.  If you have it, then there is always a chance you can pass it on.  Get tested.  There is no reason to worry about anything until you know that you have something to worry about.

You can have either type of herpes simplex, a or b, on either your mouth or genitals. Either kind can be passed on when no sores are visible.  That means that someone with cold sores can give someone herpes on their genitals through oral-genital contact.

Yea. That's the plan. Get tested. It just sucks that it can be passed on if their is no symptoms. After reading a bit it seems that one in five people have the genital virus and four in five have the oral virus. This seems a bit much (i doubt everyone is tested) and scared the shit out of me. If I'm positive it's pretty much :goodnight:. Every time before I get laid ill have either two choices:

a) Lie and be a douchbag. Not gonna happen.
b) Tell that even though I don't have an outbreak yet the person is still at risk of getting oral and genital herpes from me. That pretty much means I wouldn't get laid. I know I would refuse someone if I knew I didn't have it. Oral herpes is nasty enough for me. Fortunately I have a much greater chance of getting laid only having that one.

If I'm positive its going to be hard to be mature about it. It's already hard for me to be mature about anything. This is gonna be even harder. You can probably tell by my post. Damn nasty virus.
