I received Herpes at the age of 40. I was treated quickly with medication. My husband had passed away and I did not think about myself having herpes for a long time. Later in life I met my partner I live with now. I have had one outbreak at 49 which would of been my second time only. I am 53 years old now. My partner has thought alot about what would happen if I passed the virus onto him. These are the only two times I had an outbreak. Is it possible after reaching a certain age the outbreaks demises the changes of having more breakouts? I only received two outbreaks with in 13 years.

Hi and thanks for writing. My name is MK and I am the producer for this site.

I am not a health professional, so I cannot answer your questions specifically. What I can do is forward your question along to one of our experts to see if they have an answer.

In the meantime, check out Dr. Grayson's blog titled Why Am I Having More Frequent Outbreaks? If you aren't having many outbreaks, maybe you can identify something you're doing that is helping fuel the ones that you are having.

I will let you know what I here.

Hello, Is there any ways to cure the herpes? They told me no.

As a matter of fact, 70 million are afflicted with STDs in the U.S. alone and an estimated over 400 million worldwide. So we are not alone. I joined a huge community for herpes singles only to chat and find love. it's http://www.STDromance.com.com

What is the treatment that you have used? I have used vygone zapper and it is also without medications. I bought it here www.vygone.com.

Well it is pretty interesting that we share the same plight. I re-marry another man as well and the "disease" didnt get back. I am not sure if it will after several years. But if it did, I will just use the same treatment.
