A member asked:
Can a girl get genital herpes if her male partner uses a condom and is taking medication?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Less likely: Condoms should generally protect you from genital herpes being transmitted to you by your partner, but condoms do break, they can leak around the edges, few people use them 100% of the time, and if he performs oral sex on you, you can get it that way.
