Can Valtrex 1 Gm Be Taken Preemptively For Genital Herpes?

I have genital herpes and I normally have an outbreak at the end of my period. I just started my period Sunday, so I'm expecting an outbreak tomorrow or thursday. I have a prescription for Valtrex 1 gm. Should I start taking it now or wait until the outbreak starts?
