A member asked:
I have hsv2, can my partner get it if i have no symptoms, use protection and am on valtrex (valacyclovir) but have bumps from razor burn ?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Always a chance: It must be certain that these are razor bumps not active small HSV2 lesions. The risk of infecting a partner is negligible with medication protection and no open active lesions
