Yes, you can contract herpes for a carrier who has no visible symptoms, and once you get it, you've got it for life. Always use protection. Answer A urinary tract infection is different than herpes and is not spread to your partner. You may feel like you have the symptoms of a urinary tract infection while you are having an outbreak. There is medicine available for herpes from your doctor, but it is not a cure and does not prevent transmission. It will, however, lessen the number of outbreaks you have and shorten the length of the outbreak.

Yes. However, talk with your doctor about this. The disease lasts a lifetime, so you need all the data you can get.

Yes you can still catch herpes if the person doesn't have an outbreak; but it isn't as likely to catch it.

Is herpes a serious disease?

The initial outbreak of herpes is usually the most severe. A patient who has never had genital herpes or cold sores typically has the worst initial outbreak. A history of other herpes infections may make the initial outbreak less severe, as the body already has related antibodies. These patients may be more likely to have genital herpes without knowing it. As time goes on, outbreaks typically become less severe.
