Precautions that are need to live with someone with genetal herpes?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
See below: If the person is your sexual partner, avoid intercourse when he or she has active lesions, and use condoms at all times to minimize your risks ( although your risk will still not be zero despite these precautions). If he or she is not your sexual partner, there really should not be any risk to you.
