Bells Pasly, Post Herpetic Neuralgia, Mollaret's Meningitis, Encephalitis..? Some good information in this video but to gloss over some of these health issues caused by HSV is a slight disservice. Trivializing it as a minor skin blister is what many like to do, but this is an insidious virus that can wreak repetitive havoc on your immune system and nerves, possibly blinding or killing you.

Thank you for your comments. Yes you are right that a very small proportion of individuals get a very raw deal from HSV. But the vast majority do not. Nearly every virus has the potential to kill or cause morbidity but this isn't the experience most people have. There are many who stigmatise HSV to such an extent that if they do suddenly get an outbreak they destroy their relationships and sex lives. I'm trying to reduce the stigma. HSV is about as dangerous as VZV, the virus which causes chicken pox, VZV rightly or wrongly doesn't carry the same stigma only because it is not associated with sex. Thank you for being interested in my channel. Kind regards Dr Bret Palmer

I'd like to know the factors for lowering infection risk. For instance... Some medical sources say that if you already have HSV1 you can't (as easily) get another infection. Others say the opposite. From what I understand shedding is more frequent in the first years after primary infection? Antiviral drugs half the risk (roughly)? I mean... Let's look at a scenario with a relationship with unprotected oral sex in asymptomatic periods. ... How low can you get the risk? Can it get as low as the risk you in general have with new relationships? Bonus question... If already having HSV1 reduce the risk of a secondary infection... Would it be totally insane to acquire HSV1 on purpose in a more convenient place than genitals/mouth?
@DrBretPalmer18 күн бұрын
The majority of HSV infections are caught around the mouth and usually before the first sex. You are correct viral shedding is reduced by 50% Please also remember that 90% of the population will have HSV by the time they are 50. Risk is different for different people and most people already have HSV1 and won't know it, so there risk is zero if you already have the infection.

Hi Dr Bret - I have one more question. When I was visiting my doctor today, we spoke about herpes testing. She said she will NEVER routinely blood test patients for HSV 1 and 2 and advises against this practice unless in exceptional circumstances. She said the results send people into an un necessary tailspin ( and they do, I agree ). But then what happens is you have a bunch of people walking around with a transmissible virus they know nothing about. Her view is, herpes is normal irrespective of type. 1 or 2, doesn’t matter. Can I please get your opinion on this.

Thank you!

Thank you for your question. To my knowledge and current research the virus doesn't change unless antivirals are used incorrectly, then it can mutate and become resistant to the antiviral. The virus will stay in you system life long but your immune system can become weaker as you age so that the virus can break out more. However ~5-10 percent of cases, per year the virus stops breaking out and people think the virus has got weaker. My research is looking into this and its just the immune system is probably being triggered by another virus making it stronger against HSV. Hopefully will get a paper published soon, as a case report first.

@DrBretPalmer2 жыл бұрын
Hi Owen, Shingles is caused by the chicken pox virus (VZV), so won't cause herpes antibody to be positive. Herpes is extremely common. Ever had a cold sore? If so then that's herpes. If anyone in your family had a coldsore then you probably picked it up as a child as that's the most common way of getting it. I hope this is helpful. Dr Bret Palmer

Hi, thanks for this video. I’ve read that HSV2 is rarely transmitted orally. I’ve also read that taking prep orally helps reduce the risk of transmission by 33% in heterosexual couples. Do you know the likelihood of a gay, seronegative prep patient(in a discordant relationship) contracting HsV2 via unprotected oral sex and outercourse(penis-penis running) with someone who’s been positive and never been symptomatic(even though he’s had it for over 2 years) and isn’t on medication? Also, is it true that being HSV1 positive slightly lowers the chance of infection of HSV2 due to antibodies already present in the body? Last, how would you describe the genital tingling cause by hsv2? Like, what does it feel like? How long does it last? Is it usually only limited to prodrome or is it also common during the first outbreak?
@DrBretPalmer2 жыл бұрын
Thank you for your questions. For the chances of shedding for oral HSV2 is 6.5%, genital shedding is around 78%. This is with no ulcers or sores - asymptomatic. The likelihood of catching is lower with an estimate of around 10% - with multiple contacts, unprotected asymptomatic contact. Likelihood can be lowered by using condoms if you know where the Herpes sores usually are, e.g. end of the penis then use a condom. HSV1 does lower the risk of break outs with HSV2 but not catching it. As you said your partner is asymptomatic so he will shed but how often is unknown and even if you do catch it, you may never of broken out either also you may already have it. I hope this helps. Good luck.

Oh I forgot, the prodrome is different for different people usually it is a itching or tingling in the area where outbreaks occur. But if you've never had an outbreak I wouldn't let it concern you. Also don't have a blood test as it won't help you. Kind regards Dr Bret Palmer

90% of people have the antibodies. If you have never had an outbreak then don't dwell on it. Because herpes is so common and it is difficult to figure out when you catch it (most infections are caught as a child), there's no point trying to figure out who gave it to who. Herpes is caused by the HSV virus. Papsmear is trying to detect HPV which is the human paploma virus (watch the videos on warts). I hope this helps explain it.

I have a question, would you say the acyclovir buccal tablets formulation works better than acyclovir oral tablets? I have never seen buccal medication. I have seen IV, PO, or ointment formulations. Which formulation PO vs buccal is more affordable? What viral medication have you seen or researched worked best for recurrent outbreaks for HSV1?
@DrBretPalmer Жыл бұрын
I only use oral acyclovir, as the tablets we use can be dissolved in water as well, so the buccal formulation not really needed. As a general rule buccal tablets are more expensive than normal tablets. IV meds work faster than oral, but over time, eitger are equal. In conclusion use oral as on the packet and you'll save money and have the best result. I hope that helps.

Hi there, would need more information. But have you had a HSV swab test to make sure it is coldsores/herpes. If you have and it is HSV, then you could try standard aciclovir 400mg three times a day for 5 days to see if this helps. Herpes comes and goes, it doesn't usually come and stay. Sores at the corner of the mouth could be herpes but cracked sore lips are common for other reasons, from licking the area to diet or other infections. One last thing. If your over 55, consider getting a Shingles vaccine as this may help boost your immune system against chicken pox but also against HSV (my research area). Obviously discuss this with your doctor. Good luck Take care Dr Bret Palmer

Hello Dr Palmer. I see that acyclovir/valacylovir still the standard protocol for episodic and transmission therapies for HSV2. Do you think there will ever be a type of at home rapid test for detection of infectious particles on the skin and mucosal surfaces? The greatest fear expressed by our patients is spreading to their partners. They often don't like to use barriers, especially the female condom in monogamous relationships. Because the nucleoside analogues are not 100% effective in preventing transmission, of course the patient cannot know when they are shedding enough of a load to transmit. Do you think an at-home swab would be a good addition to the HSV tool kit? Thank you.
@DrBretPalmer3 жыл бұрын
Good question. The problem is people may only shed for a very short period of time. A home swab test done in the morning would not confirm a shedding status later in the day. Also suppression therapy only suppresses by about 50%. If its a long relationship does the partner already have it? Functional cures are more likely to be with us over the next few years but will have to wait and see.... but they won't stop shedding either. Even if a home test was available I personally wouldn't recommend it, as will pathologise a very common infection.

Last question . I see some studies show first outbreak could occurs years after actual infection but wouldn’t the antibodies be there by then ? I’ve accepted my diagnosis but I jus try to narrow things down especially because I don’t have many partners and I’ve tested yearly. So when it is dormant does it not show on igg testing ?
@DrBretPalmer2 жыл бұрын
In ~80% of people infected antibodies can show, it doesn't really matter if you are infected and have regular outbreaks or not. A swab of sores is way more accurate. On your next blood test (which you shouldn't do), if may show up. And you are correct that the first outbreak may be years and in some people many decades after they where infected. Next video tomorrow is a short discussion on HSV bloods, if they are worth doing.

Hi Dr. Palmer. I have a question. Can herpes symptoms last for 2 months? I have recently been diagnosed with HSV 2. I started having symptoms (blisters, discharge, itching) on April 7, went to the Dr by April 13, I got some blood tests done and she prescribed valacyclovir. My blisters went away in about 2 weeks but all other symtoms remained. I went back to the Dr on May 16 for my blood test results. IGM came back positive but IGG negative. She examined me again because I was still having symptoms. She said the area still looks pretty irritated and she again prescribed valacyclovir. It has been almost 2 months now since my diagnosis and I am still experiencing irritation in the area. My vulva is irritated and between my butt cheeks is also irritated. There are no blisters at all though.
@DrBretPalmer Жыл бұрын
Thank you for the question. Would of helped to of had a PCR swab test, but either way it seems the valacyclovir helped. I'd say continue with the antiviral, you may need to increase the dose for a week and don't use soap on the genitals just water and an emollient, hopefully symptoms will reduce. Take care Kind regards Dr Bret Palmer

Dr Halford has now died. The vaccine he produced wasn't a cure but is a functional cure instead. This approach will give better results.

In the end it is cold sores on your genitals. If someone has coldsores on the mouth then they don't disclose that! Most medical doctors say just tell long term partners that you have had coldsores and leave it at that. This is mainly for doctors to cover themselves, just in case. In UK law if you inform people you usually protect yourself from prosecution. I would generally say not to make it an issue. Just say you get cold sores down below and leave it at that, wait for them to have follow up questions and have sex when not having any outbreaks. Hope this is useful. Kind regards Dr Bret Palmer

Hey Dr.Palmer, I recently took an igg test specific for hsv2 with a score of 1.89 and a positive reflex. I never had a symptom before, I was tested because my partner grew sores on her tongue after oral sex which ended being canker sores not herpes. She tested as well with a negative igg and negative pcr swab. My doctor and urologist believe I had a false positive because of all the evidence from my girlfriend and due to me only having one sexual encounter before her in my life. They tested me with a blood pcr test and I was tested negative and yes I do cold sores on my mouth during the winter. Do you think I should be concerned at all or worry if I date a new girl about spreading it to her?
@DrBretPalmer Жыл бұрын
I'd be more concerned that your girlfriend had a chancre, this is a sore associated with syphilis. Forget HSV. Have you both been tested for syphilis (add in HIV as well) and if positive then both treated? If both are negative then retest in 3 months again. HSV is very common. 90% of the population will have it by they time they are 50. If you haven't had a swab test positive, you do not know where the HSV... could be mouth, genitals, anus, back etc. I'd sort out the syphilis first. Don't worry about the HSV. I hope this helps.

Hi Dr. Palmer. I hope you are well. I have a question. I have recently been diagnosed with HSV 2 as my igm test was positive. I was wondering if there is a possibility of a false positive? I am HSV 1 positive (have been for about 11 years). I did the HSV 2 igg and igm test. The igg reading was 0.02 and the igm reading was 2.07. N.B: I got tested because I was experiencing symptoms of genital herpes. I had 2 blisters (1 on each side of my vulva), a bad discharge, irritation and burning when peeing. I realised that this video was posted a while back but I really hope you see this and get a chance to reply.

Hi there, thank you for your question. The best for genital blisters is a swab test as that will tell you if it is herpes and the type as well as the location. Blood tests usually give false negatives and don't tell you where the infection is or when you got it. However IgM is a temporary antibody, so if a true result, then you caught it in the last 3 months. If you decide to repeat the test, in three months then IgG should then be present. In the UK, we don't do blood tests and you'll be asked to do a swab test next time the blisters appear. I hope this helps. Kind regards

Hi there, Great question. The virus is still shed through the skin, from the area that was originally infected. For Men to prevent onward transmission, if the shedding is from the penis, then condoms are very effective. From women to men, condoms are not very good as lesions tend to be around the vulva so transmission around the groin is quite common, condoms don't protect the groin. Some people take acyclovir or valaciclovir but this doesn't stop transmission only reduces it. That's why the majority of the population have this virus. I hope this helps.

Aciclovir is unlicensed but considered to be safe. Please tell your doctor so you can discuss options with him/her.
