HSV-2 Positive Couple Questions
We are a monogomus couple, both positive for HSV-2 (genital), and on suppressive daily therapy and want to know: 1) is their any risk in having normal intercourse w/o a condom since we are both infected ? 2) Is their risk in me giving my boyfriend oral sex (as in getting HSV-2 orally as well) ? 3) Is their risk in my boyfriend giving me oral sex (as in him getting oral HSV-2) ? Since we are both infected what reasonable precautions or risks are there for us ?
From what I've read you can't get infected again. Since you're both infected there isn't any need for the condom.
just never perform oral on active genital lesions. otherwise no precautions to take.
