Genetial Herpes Out Break and Treatment - Herpes Message Board

lrock · 01-03-2007, 10:32 AM

Hi eveyone,

I remember when I first got Genetial herpes about 5-6 years ago. My first outbreak was the worst and I was scared to dealth. I didn't know what was going on. But since my 1st outbreak I must admit that it has never been as bad again.

Now I seem to get maybe 1-2 genetial herpes outbreaks a year. (if that) Im not and have never taken any meds like Valtrax or anything. Okay...but i guess i need to get to my question uh. LOL

I have read that Lysine can help herpes out ALOT! And now im going thru another out break. (and is it me, but I think i had an outbreak around this time last year too) But does Lysine help only for cold sores or could it possibly help for genetial herpes too?

Thanks a million in advance guys...

LRock,

I've read that Lysiene is primarily effective for those with HSV-1. Now I'm no PHD, just passing along wht I've read here on the forums..

so do think think it would work for genital HSV-1 then?

I can only add this.
I exercise quite a bit and began taking the supplement L_arginine. NOw we all know that that can cause them to come out. I may have never known I had it if I didn't take it.. Maybe. Well, I certainly stopped and I began taking Lysine. I'm still on Valtrex but plan on stopping that as well.. as soon as evidence from my second outbreak it completely gone. I really hope Lysine works for HSV2. I am new to this myself.

im going to have to do some more personal testing on this "Lysiene" thing myslef. I started taking 1000MG lysiene a few days ago but my ob has already cleared up or clearing up.

BUT im just not sure if its the lysiene or is it just clearning on its own. I kind of waited too late to know if its the Lysiene thats actually working. So what im going to do is test this thing out on my next outbreak.
