Two Types of Herpes: What You Need to Know
Herpes Simplex Virus Type 1 (HSV-1 / Oral Herpes)
HSV-1 is a contagious infection that can be spread through intimate contact with an infected person. The initial infection is usually the worst, and recurring infections tend to be milder.
Herpes Simplex Virus Type 2 (HSV-2 / Genital Herpes)
HSV-2 is generally transmitted during sex through contact with genital or anal surfaces, skin, sores or fluids of someone infected with the virus. HSV-2 can be transmitted even if the skin looks normal and is often transmitted in the absence of symptoms.
