Possible???!


Question:

Possible???

if you are a virgin, and never had any sexual contact, and if you are a teen, is it possible to have herpes showing? and if you do have herpes, how can you get checked?


Answers:

No sexual contact of ANY kind? If that is the case, it is highly doubtful that you have herpes. Ask your doctor to test you. Herpes is spread by direct skin to skin contact. Unlike a flu virus that you can get through the air, herpes spreads by direct contact, that is, directly from the site of infection to the site of contact. For example, if you have a cold sore and kiss someone, you can transfer the virus to their mouth. Similarly, if you have active genital herpes and have vaginal or anal intercourse, you can give your partner genital herpes. Finally, if you have a cold sore and put your mouth on your partners genitals (oral sex), you can give your partner genital herpes.
