Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Hello. I recently have been seeing a girl. On our 2nd date she told me she's had hsv-2 since she was 14. I'm considering to continue a relationship but I'm unsure the entire risks envolved and if it's wise since I do not want to contract the virus. She said she hasn't had an outbreak in 3 years. I'm wondering what are my odds if I practice safe sex with a condom or if there are ways to stay safer if I decide to continue seeing her. In other words what are the odds of me getting it.
