We've been looking at herpes all week but most people want to know if it can be treated?
well, Herpes can be treated, but it cannot be cured.

Antiviral medicines can help to:
✅ Reduce the severity of symptoms
✅ Speed up healing during an outbreak
✅ Reduce the frequency of future outbreaks
✅ Lower the risk of passing the virus on to others

Many people find that outbreaks become less frequent and milder over time.

Could it be herpes?

Herpes symptoms can vary from person to person, but common signs include:

🔹 Tingling, itching or burning 🔹 Small blisters or sores around the mouth or ge****ls 🔹 Pain when passing urine 🔹 Flu-like symptoms during a first outbreak

While there is no cure for herpes, treatment can help manage symptoms, speed up recovery, and reduce the chance of future outbreaks.

We don't judge people for getting a sore throat.
So why judge people for getting an STI?
Chlamydia is common, often has no symptoms, and can be treated.
Let's make testing as normal as any other health check.

S*x is a normal part of life, and talking about it shouldn't feel awkward or taboo. Everyone deserves to feel comfortable with their sexuality and make choices that feel right for them. Confidence, communication, and respect are key.
