Need advice

Posted , 4 users are following.

Hello guys so I was diagnosed with hsv 2 last year. I haven't taken my meds because I feel I have more frequent OB. So I rather not take them. I would like you guys to recommend me any natural remedies you guys can give me... I still get horriable OB during my period. Also, it's been already a year and I still get sad over it. So guys, talk to me. I feel lonely. 😢 Sometimes I do cry about having this. I hate the fact that it's A Std and I can pass it on. I wonder if I could have babys again. How can I be normal al over again.

    By taking the meds can lessen your chance of an outbreak and use condoms and don't be sexually active during an outbreak......you can have kids again but if your pregnant in the middle of an outbreak a c section will be needed to not pass it to your child. I just got diagnosed find myself crying a lot so your not alone with that part. In still trying to see how any man will ever accept me being this way.

      Hey thank you for your response. But do you think will there be any probable If I stop taking them, will there be any complications? I really want to try something natural to help me with OB. You will find someone that will accept you for having that. I was dating this guy for a month and he was fine with it. He knew it was herpes. And he wanted to keep having sex. But it didn't work out. So we're not talking anymore.

      I am unsure how things will go if you stop taking it...that's honestly up to you. And believe it or not i still think it's hard to believe anyone will look at me the same if ever found out.

    Hi. I just joined this forum because I think I may have contracted hsv2 recently.  It consumes my thoughts constantly and has me incredibly depressed.

    i know it will get better but tough to deal with now.

    ive had hsv1 on my mouth since I was a kid and have found that Lysine really works.  Not as well as acyclovir but I notice a difference in outbreak if I take a bunch of lysine right before I feel a cold sore coming on.

    i am going to start taking an 800mg lysine tablet every day now to try and suppress the new symptoms form hsv2.  Not sure if till help but I can't hurt.  I a,  also going to be taking 1 aspirin a day as I have heard that may help keep at bay as well.  Turmeric may help too so I think I'll give it a try. 

    I gobetween wanting to kill myself and wanting to fight hard and beat back that virus.  Good to talk with a community wh experiences similar things with this virus.

    hi, i literally found out 2 days ago i have herpes 2. i have done some research but everything i read says to take valtrex. i have also seen mix reviews about taking lysine but i have started taking it for the past 2 days. i will keep you updated on how i go but i'm going to see another doctor on tuesday which hopefully they can give me more advise.

    everyone is different on the recurrence of the OB as every body is different but i wouldn't go on your medication without a doctors recommendation of alternative. you would still be able to have kids but giving birth naturally means there is a high risk you can give it to your baby. if you want to try for another kid consult your doctor on the options.
