&lt;h1&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #ff99cc;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Overview of Herpes Simplex Virus (HSV)&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h1&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400; color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;Herpes is a common STI caused by the herpes simplex virus (HSV). Common symptoms of herpes include blisters or sores around the area of infection. Sores caused by HSV can vary depending on where the virus enters your system. Herpes is known to have recurrent outbreaks, and once you contract the virus, HSV can remain in your body forever.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;Active cold sores or an episode of a herpes outbreak can increase the risk of HIV infection, especially with genital herpes. If you notice symptoms that could be signs of an HSV infection, it is suggested that you also get tested for HIV. The sooner you get checked, the more likely the preventative treatment will be successful.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;Contact us&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;at &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;mailto:info.bkk@pulse-clinic.com&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;info.bkk@pulse-clinic.com&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&amp;nbsp;for more information or chat with us at any of the following platforms:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h2&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #ff99cc;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;How is Herpes Transmitted?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400; color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;Herpes is arguably the most common STD, as it is one of the most easily transmitted viruses. Skin-to-skin contact with someone who has the virus is enough to get infected, especially during an outbreak. There is a high likelihood that you know someone with herpes. Many people with herpes may not realize they have it, but their herpes can still be infectious. The only way to be sure is to get tested.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400; color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;It is uncommon to transmit genital herpes when someone with HSV performs oral sex. However, while the strain of HSV that causes oral and genital herpes might be less likely to cause infection in the other area, there is still a chance that cold sores can cause genital herpes in a sexual partner through contact.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h2&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #ff99cc;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Getting Diagnosed for Herpes&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400; color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;Around 67% of the world&#39;s population has oral herpes, according to WHO&amp;rsquo;s estimation. You might have contracted herpes but show no symptoms most of your life. Most of the time, HSV will show no symptoms or very minor symptoms that are often mistaken for something else.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400; color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;Getting tested for herpes is the only way to be sure you have HSV in your body, which can be done easily with a simple blood test and/or sore swab test. Symptoms of herpes can sometimes also be confused with &lt;a href=&quot;https://www.pulse-clinic.com/syphilis&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;text-decoration: underline; color: #ffffff;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;syphilis&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;, which requires different treatment. Getting a comprehensive test that can identify various STDs would be a useful tool for you to know more about your status.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400; color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;PULSE Clinic offers a &lt;span style=&quot;text-decoration: underline; color: #ffffff;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.pulse-clinic.com/thailand-pcr-28-stds-promotion-std-test-bangkok-pattaya-phuket-hatyai-chiangmai&quot;&gt;PCR28 test, a comprehensive test for STDs&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt; that can detect 28 viruses, fungi, and bacteria that cause STDs.

&lt;h2&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #ff99cc;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Why Should I Get Diagnosed for Herpes?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400; color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;Though there aren&amp;rsquo;t any treatments that can effectively eliminate HSV from our body, knowing that you have herpes can be useful information for you and your sexual partners, as herpes can lead to other complications such as:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot; aria-level=&quot;1&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Increased Risk of Other STDs:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt; Active cold sores increase the risk of getting other STDs, including HIV. Knowing you have HSV can help you take care of yourself and abstain from sex during recurrent episodes to avoid the risk of getting other STDs or spreading HSV to your partners.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot; aria-level=&quot;1&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Transmission to Newborns:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt; People often unknowingly spread herpes to newborn babies. Many people contract herpes this way when they are very young from kisses and touches from adults. Herpes in small children can be dangerous, with severe symptoms that can even lead to death in some cases.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;Knowing you have herpes can help you take better care of your body during an episode. You might get antiviral medication to help recover faster from cold sores or use other remedies to relieve pain, while being sure that your symptoms are just a herpes outbreak, not a sign of syphilis or other diseases.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400; color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;It is suggested that if you show signs of genital herpes, you should also get tested for HIV as a safety precaution, as herpes can increase the risk of contracting HIV. Knowing your status and observing the symptoms of HSV infection can help you plan a safe sex strategy better.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
