Genital Herpes Transmission Risk
Detail
Genital herpes transmission risk is quite high since genital herpes
becomes one of the most easily transmitted genital disease. It makes this kind
of disease easily transferred to new partner. Genital herpes is transmitted
through skin to skin contact and not by the other. At least, you need to change
your perspective that earlier thinking of blood, surfaces, sharing towels,
bedding and toilets can make you get this disease.
Genital herpes transmission risk
possible decrease factor
Your risk of getting genital herpes virus can be reduced if your mucosa membrane
and immune system works perfectly. Mucous membrane itself functioned to trap
the unwanted and harmful pathogens. When it get trapped, immune system will be
sent to kill it. Unluckily, your immune can not combat the whole harmful
pathogen. Herpes simplex virus can attack when immune system cannot defeat the
infection and create a chance of pathogen to enter the body system.
Genital herpes transmission risk and
asymptomatic sign
What makes genital herpes virus dangerous than other
is its ability to transmit the virus once it has attack your body. The infection
and spreading to your partner is possible even though there is no sign
appeared. When the virus attack without any sign then it will be called as
asymptomatic sign. the virus can appear again when you immune system level get
low. Outbreak will happen continuously around 6 up to 10 times during first
year.

with female. In fact, male also have risk to get genital herpes virus. However,
female tend to have greater risk since most of vagina comprised of mucous
membranes. The virus of herpes simplex itself is more depend on the location of
where body get contact with the virus rather than the gender differences. Several
area that carry greater risk of getting infected are vagina, anus, glans penis,
glans clitoris, urethra, clitoral hood, mouth, lips and etc.
