How do I tell a partner I have Herpes
Know the Facts
- First, have you come to terms yourself with having herpes ?
If you haven’t, then it’s unrealistic to expect another person to understand.
- How well informed are you ?
Do you know the basic steps to reduce the risk to your partner ?
- Do you know the facts about herpes?
You want to feel confident and knowledgeable before you can explain the infection to someone else.
- Be prepared: ASHA publishes an award-winning book, Managing Herpes -- subscribe
to the quarterly newsletter, the helper , or order the Herpes Facts Pack, that includes the
newsletter and book plus the booklet, Understanding Herpes.
- Have educational materials on-hand for your partner to read.
Be prepared to answer questions.
- If you don’t know the answer to a question, find out.
Contact the National Herpes Hotline at (919) 361-8488, your local health department, your doctor
or your local HELP Group for support.
