A member asked:
What is the probability of passing hsv 2 by sex during an outbreak? sore was present but not open, on the labia majora, so condom wouldnt protect skin
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Herpes simplex: The possibility of transmission is excellent. Not certain what you mean about the condom not protecting the skin? Even if you do not have active lesions you can shed virus in your vaginal secretions.
