Genital herpes — treat your symptoms now
Genital herpes is a sexually transmitted infection (STI) that can cause blisters in your genital area. Once you’ve caught it, it stays in your body, which means you can get repeat outbreaks in the same place.
If you’ve been diagnosed with it before and the symptoms are back, we can prescribe treatment to speed up your healing and help stop you from passing the infection on. We can also provide treatment in advance of need, so you have it ready for any future outbreak. There’s no need for a face-to-face conversation, we’ll just need to make sure treatment is suitable for you.
If you have frequently recurring episodes, then you may want to consider our genital herpes suppression service.
