What Causes Genital Herpes?
I am 70 yrs. old. My husband left me for a lover. I asked my Dr. To test me for any sexual transmitted disease and the test was POSITIVE for genital heroes. I was totally faithful to my husband. I have never had any sores or gynological problems of any kind whatsoever. I was tested twice and both came back positive. I am beside myself! Help!

Hello,
Genital herpes is transmitted through sexual Intercourse.
I suggest to acyclovir tablets in case of lesions.
You can also use acyclovir cream for local application.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
