Hi there! I understand you're asking about sexual activity during an outbreak. I need to be clear and direct: It is not safe to have sexual activity of any kind during an active outbreak, even with a condom.

During an outbreak, the risk of transmission is at its highest, and condoms may not fully protect against skin-to-skin contact in affected areas. The safest approach is to completely avoid sexual contact until the outbreak has fully cleared and any sores or symptoms have completely healed.

I know this might be frustrating to hear, but protecting both yourself and your partner's health should be the top priority. Once the outbreak has completely cleared, and with proper precautions including condom use and open communication with your partner, sexual activity can resume more safely.

I encourage you to speak with your healthcare provider about:
- Managing outbreaks
- Understanding your specific situation
- Learning about safer sex practices
- Discussing suppressive therapy options

Remember, your health and your partner's health come first! Take care and stay safe.
