A member asked:
Are genital herpes caused by oral sex with someone with herpes permanently?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes!: This is a permanent disease. Whoever gave you this should have been on remitive therapy. That said, you may have more inherent immunity and outbreaks can be few and far between. If you get into a new relationship, should should be on remitive therapy yourself and advise your partner of your condition!
