GHSV1 while pregnant?

Hello, I have had GHSV1 for the past 5 years and was wondering if I should expect outbreaks while pregnant? I’ve only had three in the past, all happening within my first two years of diagnosis. I’m interested in hearing someone’s GHSV1 pregnancy journey as there’s little info online (specifically pertaining to GHSV1).

Hopefully someone who has personal experience with this will come along and help, but I will tell you that with all things herpes, everyone is different.

Your hormones may trigger more outbreaks, or maybe not.

Your doctor may put you on antivirals during your last trimester to make sure you don't have an outbreak during delivery.

Congrats. :)
