| 3 | How do you guys keep yourself safe from STI’s?Thanks. Yeah I kinda wish I didn’t know. If def weighs on my mind a lot which is crazy for something that doesn’t even have symptoms. It’s definitely much more of a mental thing | /r/askTRP | 03/02/21 05:57 AM |
| 4 | How do you guys keep yourself safe from STI’s?Yes it’s super awkward. I honestly hate that I have to have the conversation. That’s why I get so frustrated that it’s not usually included in testing, because most people who are asymptomatic like me are blissfully unaware. I had the misfortune of finding out so now I feel obligated. I’ll admit there’s been times where I haven’t and I felt so guilty after I just can’t do it. Even though I technically shouldn’t even know I have it. Yes people have lost interest. People hear the word “herpes” and… | /r/askTRP | 02/02/21 09:32 PM |

| 3 | How do you guys keep yourself safe from STI’s?Yes actually MOST people who have HSV are asymptomatic. Or for HSV1, they may have had a cold sore when they were a kid and never got one again. Well, they still have HSV1 and can still give it to you if they give you oral sex. It stays in your body and can transmit even when symptoms aren’t present through a process called “viral shedding”. So basically anyone who’s ever had a cold sore in their life could possibly be contagious when they give you oral, even if it’s been years since they had a … | /r/askTRP | 02/02/21 08:49 PM |
| 3 | How do you guys keep yourself safe from STI’s?OP- the only way to avoid herpes is to ask partners to get an HSV antibody test before contact. HSV is not included in standard STD panels and most people who carry it are asymptomatic, so they don’t know they have it. About 2/3 of adults carry HSV1, which can transmit to your genitals if they give you oral sex. 1/5 of women carry HSV2. I don’t mean to scare you, but at a certain point it’s kinda unavoidable since the reality is like 80%+ of people have the ability to give you genital herpes one… | /r/askTRP | 02/02/21 08:23 PM |
| 1 | How do you guys keep yourself safe from STI’s?Right. That’s the issue OP is having. Even if you are using condoms and getting tested regularly for “everything”, you still aren’t being tested for HPV and HSV. So people can get it and spread it without realizing. | /r/askTRP | 02/02/21 08:14 PM |
| 1 | How do you guys keep yourself safe from STI’s?Just curious, is HSV included in your testing? Usually it’s not part of STD panels | /r/askTRP | 02/02/21 08:04 PM |
| 2 | properly disclosing STD statusJust so you know, genital HSV1 is actually way less contagious than oral HSV1. He is much less likely to pass it than people who get cold sores (half the population). https://herpesopportunity.com/downloads/herpes-opportunity-disclosure-handout.pdf?utm_source=share&utm_medium=ios_app&utm_name=ios_share_flow_optimization&utm_term=control_2 | /r/askTRP | 01/06/19 01:28 PM |
| 3 | properly disclosing STD statusActually, OP is right. Genital HSV1 is significantly less contagious than oral HSV1. The virus only sheds 3-5% of the time. There are actually no recorded cases of genital to genital HSV1 transmission. It’s all oral to genital. https://herpesopportunity.com/downloads/herpes-opportunity-disclosure-handout.pdf?utm_source=share&utm_medium=ios_app&utm_name=ios_share_flow_optimization&utm_term=control_2 | /r/askTRP | 01/06/19 01:26 PM |
| 1 | I caught herpes. What do I do now?Yes I know all this | /r/askTRP | 17/04/19 10:49 AM |
| 1 | I caught herpes. What do I do now?They are both HSV1 though. It doesn’t matter the location. If you have it, you have it and can’t catch it again in another location. | /r/askTRP | 17/04/19 04:22 AM |
| 3 | I really like her and shes so hot - but she has herpesThat’s true, but you don’t know who has it and who doesn’t unless you ask all your partners to get blood tested for it! HSV isn’t included on standard STD panels so most people who have it don’t tell, because they dont know! | /r/seduction | 04/03/19 06:32 PM |
| 12 | I really like her and shes so hot - but she has herpesOk, well if it’s genital, kissing poses 0 risk at all, so feel free to make out all you want! Herpes is really misunderstood. In the US, 68% of adults have HSV1, and 26% of females have HSV2. I think the official stat for HSV2 is 1/6 people, but it’s more common in women than men. It’s really not a big deal if you take precautions. If she knows she has it, she will know when she’s having an outbreak and just avoid sex during those times, use a condom, etc. I think people who don’t know their sta… | /r/seduction | 04/03/19 05:22 PM |
| 1 | I really like her and shes so hot - but she has herpesDoes she have oral or genital, and is it type HSV1 or HSV2? | /r/seduction | 04/03/19 05:09 PM |
| 1 | Girl has Genital Herpes, but hasnt had an outbreak since 8 yearsWith precautions the chances of transmitting it are super low. So it’s pretty unlikely he will get it. | /r/askTRP | 02/03/19 06:27 PM |
| 1 | Girl has Genital Herpes, but hasnt had an outbreak since 8 years1/5 of women have HSV2 and about 65% have HSV1. You’ve probably been exposed to it before. Most std panels don’t even test for it so most people don’t even know they have it. | /r/askTRP | 02/03/19 06:26 PM |
