[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Her gyn ought to be sufficient. She needs guidance on best practices not to spread it to others. Sorry [/quote]

Right - of course. But I'm looking for guidance on long term effects of daily antivirals? versus not taking daily, just taking if you feel an outbreak? Which is better? [/quote]

She's going to have to live with it a bit before she knows what is best for her.
When I thought I had it my doctor explained that she recommends daily pills if you get an outbreak six or more times a year.

I read that getting antivirals during the first outbreak does a lot to suppress future outbreaks.

The other thing my doctor said that was helpful to me is that it is a skin condition. It doesn't impact fertility or life expectancy. There is a stigma because of the location of the blisters and how it was contracted. The mental health part of having to share with each new partner is something she should work on. Having a healthy attitude helps. There was a post here recently that said married couples had not given it to the negative partner, so that's information you can help her discover.[/quote]
