Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
The only precaution to be taken to avoid transmission of herpes to the baby is to avoid normal delivery and go for a c section. As for using a donor egg then this depends on your uterine capacity and endometrial thickness, if normal then success rates are encouraging. No serious side effects of hormonal treatment is expected.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
