What Is Genital Herpes?
Genital herpes is spread through skin-to-skin contact, often during sexual activity. It may cause symptoms such as:
- Itching or tingling in the genital area
- Painful blisters or sores
- Burning when passing urine
- Flu-like symptoms during the first outbreak
After the initial infection, the virus remains in the body and can cause recurring outbreaks. Antiviral treatment can help control these episodes and reduce the risk of transmission.
How Do Genital Herpes Treatments Work?
Antiviral medications work by preventing the herpes virus from multiplying, helping to:
- Shorten the length of an outbreak
- Relieve symptoms like pain, itching, and sores
- Speed up the healing process
- Reduce the frequency of recurrences
- Lower the risk of passing the virus to others
They are most effective when started at the first sign of symptoms.

How to Take Genital Herpes Treatment
Genital herpes is treated with antiviral tablets that help reduce the severity and duration of outbreaks. These medications don’t cure the virus but are highly effective in managing symptoms and reducing the risk of transmission.
- Swallow the tablets whole with water.
- Start treatment as soon as symptoms begin — such as tingling, itching or blisters.
- Take tablets at evenly spaced times each day to maintain effectiveness.
- Drink plenty of fluids and avoid missing doses.
- Do not stop the course early, even if symptoms improve.
Common Questions About Genital Herpes Treatment
Can genital herpes be cured?
No – but antiviral medication helps manage symptoms and reduce recurrences.
How quickly do treatments work?
Most people see improvement within 1–2 days when treatment is started early.
Can I take treatment daily to prevent outbreaks?
Yes. Your prescriber may recommend suppressive therapy (e.g. one tablet daily) if you experience frequent outbreaks.
Is it still contagious during treatment?
Yes, but taking daily antiviral medication can reduce the risk of transmission, especially when combined with condom use.
Is my order confidential?
Absolutely. All consultations are private and orders are delivered in plain, discreet packaging.
