Can you link the source? I seriously doubt that DAILY Valtrex only reduces the chances by 4 percent. I'm aware that most people get HSV-2 from HSV-1 but if HSV-2 viral shedding was at only 6-8 percent, then 99 percent of pornstars wouldn't have genital herpes. Listen man, Valtrex is proven to be the BEST solution for viral shedding and it also reduces the painful outbreaks that people get. This is obviously important to you because you made a thread about it and I'm sure it bothers you, so why can't you spare 40-50 dollars on generic Valacyclovir a month?

I still speak, and occasionally fool around with the girl who gave it to me, yet I haven't mentioned it to her that she has it. Not really sure how to mention it, or if I even should.


u mean to tell me that ur still with the girl that gave u it and u didn't tell her that she has it. how irresponsible can u be. that's shows that u don't care about yourself and because of that look wat happen to u.

First: ur still with her
Second: u didn't tell her what she has done to u and how irresponsible she is
Third: u have the nerve to ask us for advice when ur irresponsible too.
Sex is the motivation for everything.
never be a bitches "friend" make your intensions clear, you win some you lose some that's life.
Mastering others is strength. Mastering yourself is true power.

Valtrex is expensive as fuck. That's why you buy the generic version of every drug because you're paying for the drug and not the brand name. It's up to you but I doubt that you're ALWAYS gonna use a condom.

The people who get genital herpes are almost always people who haven't been infected with oral before though. If you have contracted oral herpes, after a 6 month window you develop an immunity to the virus and it is virtually impossible to get infected in your genital region. Luckily, most people have gotten oral herpes before, so a lot of people actually have an immunity built up to avoid getting genital herpes without even knowing it.


Buddy I wish that were true, but unfortunately it's not. I've been dealing with HSV for several years and have even moderated a help board, but the hypochondriacs drove me nuts and I had to get outta there! It's true that if you have GHSV, you do have a certain immunity to OHSV, but who cares about that huh? If you have OHSV, you don't have any kind of immunity to GHSV, so you can still get it. Plus if you have OHSV, you can give to someone genitally, so they get type 1 genital. Those are the reals facts. The more people know about HSV (such as in high infection places like Vancouver), the less of an issue of course.

Certainly less of an issue out on the West Coast where you live, I think 30+% of women under 40 are positive (don't quote me on that). In the rest of the country, especially in small towns, it can be a real life changer. If you disclose and get refused, the girl tells a friend who tells a friend, you're done, everyone in town knows.

I would definitely use a condom. Valtrex or any supressive med I'm not so sure on. Considering they don't reduce shedding by that much, it just doesn't seem worth it.


WTF are you talking about? Old surveys found 50% reduction in viral shedding and the latest ones are up around 80%. That's tremendous, and there are basically no side effects.

Sounds like a lot. But studies generally show that the chances of passing herpes on to a partner, after a year of regular sex, is about 4% (6 - 8% without condom). Taking supressive meds lowers that to about 2%. Looking at it that way, there doesn't appear to be much difference. Considering the side effects, both short and long term, as well as the price, it just doesn't seem that worth it.


Dude, it cuts the rate more than in half, you just said it yourself. What kind of idiot are you? Male to female it's actually from 6-8% down to 2-3%, that's cutting it by 2/3+. Do you think the girl you're fucking would consider that worth it???? What a fucking bonehead you are!

I'm out of this discussion, have said my peace, you just don't want to accept what you need to do to maximize your partner's protection.

I told you what I thought you were earlier and stand by it. Done, not even going to read any more of this topic.

Stick to dateing sites for ppl with herpes. I read an artical awhile back about a dating site who banned ppl who smoke from using the site. when ask why they said there were more ppl who would date ppl with herpes but most ppl would not date a smoker.. That suprised me but maybe its true.  I would tell the potential partner I had it, but that just me. My morals and values would not allow me to keep something from her that could ruin her life. I know if it was reversed and she told me she had something  I would tell her there is no way in hell I could fuck now and it was nice meeting you. I see were ur coming from tho shit id be in a corner crying if i found out i got somthing that penacylin could not fix :S

Americans REALLY overplay the effects of herpies. Most people who have it don't even know about it. Of those who have it, many of them will have one or two outbreaks and then rarely ever have one again. Even the one or two they have they might not realize its an outbreak because it can be so mild many people will think its a bug bite.

Very few people have it so bad where they have outbreaks a few times a year and where they hurt real bad and stuff. My best friend got herpies 4 years ago and has only ever had ONE outbreak. My male cousin got it two years ago and had one outbreak. Many places don't even test for herpies in STD test any more because for most people hepries isn't really a life changer.

I got the clap once and it scared me to death. I woke up 1 morning and 1 of my nuts was the size of a softball :S I thought i was gonna die LOL  Funny the doctor told me to contact the girl to let her know she has it but I did not even know her name. Damn those one night stands are dangerous. :s
