Can i get infected with herpes by drinking my infected parthner's urine?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Little or no risk: Urine inhibits many bacteria and viruses; and even if your partner had an active genital herpes outbreak, both dilution and the uribe's anti-viral poperties probably would reduce any infection risk to zero or close to it. I wouldn't worry about it.
