The chance of getting herpes while there isn't a break out and if he is on medication is really very low, specially if he hasn't had a break out in a long time. If he has had a recent break out then your risk of getting it is higher. But you can ask him to use condoms while he doesn't have break outs, if that will make you feel more comfortable.
