Have you seen genital herpes. Why would you wanna go there? Source(s): Nursing student book

Yes, it is a sexually transmitted disease. If she has herpes, you do, too. Why endanger your health, use protection! Herpes is the "gift" that never stops giving.

Both of you should see a doctor ASAP for treatment. There are prescription medicines like avoclir (sp?) that help the outbreaks.
Yep. with or without the presence of herpetic lesions you can get it.
P.S. there is no cure for herpes.
wow
i cant believe u had to ask that
There is Herpes 1 and 2 ..........one is above the waist and the other is below the waist..........does that answer the question?
P.S. shingles is also a herpes virus caused from chicken pox still in the body.
