HSV 1
Hi I am 17 i was told by a docter i had HSV 1 when i was 16. My first outbreak was sort of bad but nothing real big. I havent had an outbreak since , (about 6 months). Whats the chances I can pass the virus to a partner with no signs or outbreaks during sexual activity (with condom).

Or go to the link "STD Quick Facts and Articles on the STD Forum home page and read the article on genital herpes.
