Hello i have herpes and my gf doesn't i want more kids but don't know if its possible. is it?

Yes, risks to her: Are you asking if it is physiologically possible to impregnate your girlfriend? The answer is yes, but she is at risk of getting herpes if she has unprotected sex with you. I would ask an obgyn doctor about options available to you both. There may be ways for you to conceive with her without putting her at risk of catching herpes with minor medical procedures.
