Hello,
I have been diagnosed with Genital Herpes
Can i transmit virus to my partner with no visible symptoms or rashes?
i'm confused.

Hello JohnK,
Genital herpes can spread even if there are no visible symptoms because the virus can sometimes be released from the skin or mucous membranes without any warning. This process, known as "asymptomatic shedding," happens occasionally and makes it possible for the virus to be passed on without the person realizing it.
So be careful use condom.
Thanks

Thanks
