Herpes is a prevalent sexually transmitted infection (STI) caused by the herpes simplex virus. This infection is primarily spread through contact with genitals or bodily fluids. STIs, also known as STDs or venereal diseases, can be caused by bacteria, viruses, or parasites.
Genital herpes can be transmitted through skin-to-skin contact during sexual activity. It's important to note that some individuals infected with the virus may experience very mild symptoms or none at all, yet they can still transmit the virus. Others may suffer from pain, itching, and sores around the genitals, anus, or mouth.
Currently, there is no cure for genital herpes. Symptoms often recur after the initial outbreak. However, medication can help alleviate symptoms and reduce the risk of transmission to others. Additionally, using condoms can aid in preventing the spread of genital herpes.
