To avoid infecting others with asymptomatic genital herpes infection, avoid sex and pregnancy during treatment.
Genital herpes is caused by infection with the herpes simplex virus, and some patients may experience blisters, pain, itching and other symptoms in the genital area. The ways of transmission of genital herpes include sexual contact transmission and mother-to-child transmission. Therefore, for those who are diagnosed with asymptomatic infection of genital herpes, in order to avoid transmitting the virus to others, they should avoid sexual intercourse, pregnancy, etc. during the treatment period.
Because herpes simplex viruses are easily inactivated at room temperature and in dry environments, indirect contact or salivary transmission is less common. For people with asymptomatic genital herpes infection, medication is usually not needed, but patients should strengthen all care, need to clean themselves, and develop good habits to prevent the condition from worsening.
It is recommended that people with asymptomatic genital herpes adjust their mindset and face the disease correctly. Wash the affected area with warm water every day and try to wear cotton underwear.
