Brief Answer:
Don't worry

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

Herpes does not mean end of life. Many people have it and it's not life threatening.

As long as there is good immunity and you are healthy, I don't see any reason to panic. Just relax and take things as they come. It can be managed even in pregnancy.
