When you or your partner suffer from herpes, it is not an easy challenge to face. In any relationship, trust and honesty are important. If you love your partner, then you must be open to share the truth.

It is important that if you decide to stay together, then both of you must take responsibility to ensure that you continue to enjoy a healthy, intimate live together.

By knowing, it can already help prevent the spread of herpes. Because you can begin to take steps.

There is no way to guarantee that herpes will not spread. But there are ways to help reduce the risks.

First, consult your physician. This is very important as there are different STDs and herpes might not be the only problem. Having full information will help you and your partner.

Check if Valtrex is suitable. It is known to reduce the risk. But again, this needs to be taken in consultation with a physician.

Here are some steps that you can take which will help reduce the risks:

• Do not have sex when you have an outbreak
• Do not have sex when you suspect that you are about to have an outbreak
• Always have protected sex (that is, use a condom)
• Take your medication (if prescribed)

Never take medication without first consulting your physician.
