Yes, I’ve gone the first year of my diagnosis without an outbreak… And I got into a very stressful argument… A few days later I had a bump… Two days later it became very painful… Now, eight days later, I’m still waiting to go back to normal…
Yes, it is possible to have HSV-2 (genital herpes) and not experience outbreaks or symptoms. Some people may carry the virus without ever showing signs of infection. This is known as asymptomatic shedding. However, even if there are no visible sores or symptoms, the virus can still be present in the body and potentially be transmitted to others through sexual contact. It's important to disclose your status to potential partners and practice safe sex measures like using condoms consistently.
If you have concerns about managing your condition or want more information on prevention strategies, I recommend consulting a healthcare provider who specializes in STDs for personalized guidance based on your specific situation.
