00:00Herpes! Oh, stop scrolling. Let me tell you more about herpes.

00:06Herpes simplex virus, or HSV, is the virus that causes herpes.

00:12There are two main types of HSV. HSV-1 and HSV-2.

00:20Most people with HSV-1 get oral infection during childhood from non-sexual contact.

00:30However, HSV-1 can be spread from the mouth to the genitals during oral sex.

00:39HSV-2 is almost always sexually transmitted to cause genital herpes.

00:47Oral herpes can show up as painful blisters or ulcers in and around the mouth.

00:56Genital herpes? It's bumps, blisters, or open source down there.

01:04And here's the thing. Most people with herpes show no symptoms or show very mild symptoms.

01:12But they can still pass the virus to others.

01:16The greatest risk is when there are active sores.

01:21While there is no cure for herpes, there are anti-viral medicines that can shorten or prevent its symptoms.

01:31Remember, having herpes doesn't have to be a big deal.
