General doubt about herpes

I posted u before that i am 23 yr male from India who had oral sex with a lady with Herpes. Please answer my following questions kindly ...
1.} How can we know that the person has herpes if they dont tell us.
2.) Is herpes transmitted by kissing also.
3.) Should a genital herpes person use condoms through out his life or only when he has any noticeable wounds??
          May God bless all people who are helping others in this forum.

Firstly if she told you she had herpes then hopefully you used protection. :o)

1) We cant know someone has herpes if they dont tell us, unless you see them and know what they are.

2) Herpes is transmitted through kissing.

3) A person with genital herpes should always use condoms whether they have noticable sores or not. A lot of people show no symptoms of herpes and still transmit them.

If you feel concerned about contracting them, then I would recommend you go to the doc and get tested. It can take up to 3 months for them to show so you may have to be retested after that.

Good Luck
