The dangers of female vulvar herpes

If female genital herpes is not treated in time, it can lead to other urinary diseases and cause infertility. If a man suffers from genital herpes, it may cause the growth of diseases, especially urinary system diseases, which can lead to male infertility.

Genital herpes can also lead to other mixed diseases such as gonorrhea and non-gonorrhea. The occurrence of genital herpes and other sexually transmitted diseases can result in mixed infection, the most common of which are gonorrhea, non-gonococcal urethritis, syphilis or genital warts, as well as urinary system diseases such as Trichomonas.

High-risk genital herpes can also create opportunities for cancer in women. Patients with genital herpes are 5-10 times more likely to develop cervical cancer than normal people. A type II herpes virus-specific antigen was found in cervical cancer tissue, exfoliated cells and precancerous cells.

Genital herpes can cause serious psychological burden on patients. From the patient's own psychological point of view, the occurrence and recurrence of genital herpes will increase the patient's mental burden. Many patients are afraid that they may develop cancer and deliberately avoid sexual life, which eventually leads to sexual dysfunction and affects family harmony.

What is the cause of herpes on female vulva?

1. Unclean sexual life: Unclean sexual life is the main reason for patients to be infected with genital herpes. If you want to prevent the occurrence of genital herpes, you must keep yourself clean and stay away from unclean sexual life, so as to stay away from the harm of genital herpes.

2. Indirect contact transmission: Clothes, bedding, toilets and bath towels used by genital herpes patients may be contaminated by the patient's secretions and carry the genital herpes virus. Healthy people who live closely with genital herpes patients can easily be infected when minor wounds come into contact with these virus-contaminated items.

3. Traumatic infection: Physical trauma, such as surgery, may cause the appearance of herpes symptoms. A weakened immune system may also lead to herpes symptoms. For example, people whose immune systems are weakened by HIV develop genital herpes more often than people with normal immune systems.
