What Is Genital Herpes?

Genital herpes is caused by the herpes simplex virus type 2 (HSV-2) and, less commonly, HSV-1. It is transmitted through skin-to-skin contact and often presents as blisters or sores around the genital or anal area.

Some people experience frequent outbreaks, while others may have mild or infrequent symptoms. Even when symptoms are not visible, the virus can still be present in the body.

Genital Herpes Treatment Options

Treatment for genital herpes focuses on managing symptoms and reducing outbreaks, rather than curing the virus.

Prescription antiviral therapy may help to:

  • Shorten the duration of outbreaks
  • Reduce pain, itching, and discomfort
  • Lower the frequency of future flare-ups
  • Reduce the risk of passing the virus to others

Your treatment plan will depend on whether you need episodic treatment (during outbreaks) or suppressive therapy (ongoing management).

Over-the-counter products may help soothe symptoms but do not treat the virus itself. Medical review is recommended for effective management.

Does Genital Herpes Treatment Work?

While genital herpes cannot be cured, prescription treatment can be highly effective in controlling symptoms and improving quality of life. Many people find that with consistent medical management, outbreaks become less frequent and less severe over time.

Treatment is most effective when guided by a healthcare professional and combined with good self-care practices.
