It is a viral infection that causes sores or blisters on or around the genitals, mouth or both. The disease is more common in women than men and is transmitted through sex.
People with multiple sexual partners are more prone to contract herpes. Though it is not a severe infection, it can get very uncomfortable and painful. More so, the infection is contagious, so getting treatment on time can save others from contracting herpes.
The only way to protect yourself from the infection is by ensuring that your partner is not infected with the virus. Having multiple sexual partners increases your risk of contracting the disease and transmitting the virus to others. Staying in a long-term, monogamous relationship with a partner who is not infected with STDs helps prevent the spread of herpes. Likewise, using good-quality latex condoms every time during sex can also provide some degree of protection from contracting the virus.
