What causes HSV-2?
By understanding the common causes of herpes and how the virus is passed from person to person, you can more effectively reduce your risk of infection.
Genital herpes is commonly spread through sexual contact with someone who carries the virus.
At hub.health we offer both suppressive and outbreak therapy in the form of antiviral medications.
Symptoms of HSV-2
The most common visible symptom appears as lesions around the genital area. Additionally, carriers may experience flu like symptoms and painful urination.
With this in mind, however, HSV-2 is one of the most common STDs, due to its asymptomatic nature in many carriers. If someone presents with mild symptoms, they may mistake genital lesions as an ingrown hair or pimple.
Your treatment options
Outbreak therapy
Taken at first signs of an outbreak to provide quick relief and decrease severity of symptoms.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I know if I have herpes simplex virus?
Most people who carry the herpes virus are asymptomatic, meaning they have no obvious or visible symptoms. Some people have mild herpes symptoms that can be mistaken for other skin conditions, like pimples or ingrown hairs.
If you’re experiencing small blister-like sores on or around the genitals, this is a sign you may be experiencing a herpes outbreak. An outbreak may be itchy, painful, and accompanied by flu-like symptoms (fever and body aches), a burning sensation when urinating, and fatigue.
Whether you’re asymptomatic or not, the only way to know if you carry the herpes virus is by visiting your healthcare professional for assessment.
What are the symptoms of HSV-2?
Symptoms for genital herpes typically include a group of itchy or painful blisters in the genital area that can evolve into sores. Other HSV-2 symptoms include burning when urinating, difficulty urinating, itching, and painful genitals. Flu-like symptoms of swollen glands, fever, chills, headaches, aches, and fatigue may also arise.
Can I receive a first-time HSV-2 treatment script or only repeats?
The hub.health medical team provides the highest standard of healthcare, and since text-based consults do not provide our team with enough information to determine whether you have HSV-2, unfortunately they can only offer prescriptions and treatments to patients who have already been diagnosed with HSV-2 by another doctor.
Our platform aims to simplify healthcare for those who are already on HSV-2 medication. If you believe you have Herpes Simplex Virus, visit your local GP for assessment.
Am I guaranteed a prescription and treatment for HSV-2?
At hub.health, we assess each patient individually. If our team determines a potential risk related to a specific treatment, or you do not have a confirmed diagnosis of HSV-2, your prescription may not be issued. Your practitioner may provide recommendations for the next steps, including in-person GP visits for further assessment.
Can I speak with my assigned clinician at any time?
Of course! Our online platform enables ongoing support whenever you need it. To chat with your medical team, log into your profile, head to the ‘Products’ tab and select ‘Manage Treatment’. This is where you can message your clinician.
Our team is also available at [email protected] Drop us a line, anytime.
