Hi guys.. my last post to this discussion board was asking you all if what I had looked like herpes and the answer is yes. My doctor ended up doing a swab and blood work and hsv-2 came back positive.. I have been sick to my stomach ever since my diagnosis because i'm afraid i will transmit this to my boyfriend (he has no idea what im going through).. I am now on suppressive therapy but only started yesterday.. I keep pushing sex off because im soooo afraid of passing this on to him.. From your personal experiences can you please share if you ever transmitted this virus to somebody while using a condom and on medicine.. i am depressed and i cant believe this happened to me

Talk to your boyfriend before you have sex with him. Despite what you may read on here herpes is contagious, and passing it on to someone else knowingly is illegal.

its unlikely you'll give it to him if you are on meds and use condoms. just have a talk with him

I picked up my genital HSV2 from a female despite using a condom.
By contrast, since my diagnosis I haven't passed it on despite having unprotected sex because I avoid sex during an outbreak.

right on. whatever you do, never ever have sex during an outbreak. condoms and meds cant protect you from that.
