How did I get genital herpes? |
I got genital herpes when I was a virgin. But, I had boyfriends go down on me. I heard you can get it that way, but none of my boyfriends ever had visible cold sores. Then it seemed one day I had it! It had to be from the oral sex that I got the herpes from, because like I said, I was a virgin when I got them. How could I have gotten the genital herpes if my boyfriends never had visible cold sores? It's possible that you got genital herpes from someone giving you oral sex (you don't need visible sores to pass the virus). It's also possible that you came in DIRECT skin to skin contact with someone who has the virus. DIRECT skin to skin contact like mouth to genitals, or even just rubbing genital areas together (like dry humping) is enough to spread the virus. Again, you DON'T need visible sores to get the virus. I got the virus over 6 years ago from a guy who had no signs or symptoms of the virus. I believe he received oral sex from a girl who had cold sores which then caused him to get genital herpes caused by herpes simplex virus 1. He also failed to mention to me that he had the virus. You could always get a blood test done (if you haven't already). This can tell you what kind of herpes you have (herpes simplex virus 1 or 2). I've also never had cold sores in my entire life but I tested positive for herpes simplex virus 1. Source(s): Personal experience. I have had genital herpes caused by herpes simplex virus 1 for 6+ years. you are having oral sex and you consider urself a virgin? i dont think so.! if one or your partners had any exposed sore in their mouth, you can get it. it it's inside their mouth, you or even they may never have seen an actual sore. so sorry, definitely not fair children take a lot of risks trying to be grown up. Herpes is forever. Congrats! You had a boyfriend who was too much of a coward to tell you he is infected. A lack of cold sores doesn't mean herpes can't be transmitted I believe that you can get it if your bf has genital herpes and performs oral sex. It could also be that he touched himself (scratching, maybe playing with himself), then touched you - it is frequently transmitted when there are no visible signs on either the lips or the genitals. I hope you know which one it was, or he'll keep on passing it to other people. Good luck! |
