Infection caused by the herpes simplex virus (HSV), known as herpes, is widespread worldwide.
HSV type 1 (HSV-1) is typically transmitted through
through oral contact and causes infection in or around the mouth (oral herpes), but it can also lead to genital herpes. HSV-2
is primarily transmitted through sexual contact and causes genital herpes.

Infection is lifelong, and symptoms can recur over many years.

Recurrent symptoms of both oral and genital herpes can be distressing.
Genital herpes can also lead to stigma and impact sexual relationships.
However, over time, most people with either type of herpes
adapt to living with the infection or seek treatment options. Currently, there are numerous ways to manage this condition, and CorSwiss offers top-class treatment of gynaecological diseases in leading Swiss private clinics.

Herpes Prevention Methods

In the case of herpes, prevention is better than cure. If herpes recurs frequently, your doctor
may prescribe antiviral medication that you will take at regular
intervals to help keep the virus under control.
Some people develop herpes after sun exposure, so applying
sunscreen to the lips to avoid excessive sun exposure
can help control outbreaks.

Some individuals also get herpes when under stress, so finding ways to manage or reduce anxiety levels can help.

Since the virus can be transmitted to other people and other parts of your body, you should avoid sharing drinking glasses, food containers, or touching the blister and then touching other parts of your body.

Herpes Treatment

Although there is no definitive cure for herpes, there are many ways to manage it. Finding the treatment
that works best for you may require some trial and error, but
over time, you will find a treatment that reduces outbreaks or quickly eliminates them.

TRANSMISSION OF GENITAL HERPES AND RISK FACTORS

Transmission Between Sexual Partners

The herpes virus is most commonly transmitted between partners during oral, anal, or vaginal sex.

It is also possible to develop genital herpes after contact with a cold sore on the mouth of an infected person during oral sex; in this case, genital herpes is most likely caused by HSV type 1. Transmission of the infection from person to person can occur even in the absence of visible sores.

Risk of Transmission from Environmental Surfaces (doorknobs
toilet seats, bedding) is absent.

The risk of transmission from an infected man to an uninfected female partner
is higher than the risk of transmission from an infected woman to an uninfected male partner. Like any other sexually transmitted infection, the risk of contracting genital herpes increases with the number of sexual partners, frequency of sexual contact, and infrequent use of condoms.

When is the likelihood of virus spread highest?

The risk of infection is much higher when a person has signs or symptoms of an active infection. However, the transmission of the infection is still possible even in the absence of sores.
