Four months ago i was dignose with herpes! My doctor gave me those huge pills for a week and it worked. He told me to have sex with condoms for at least 2 months. I have a stable relationship and my boyfriend knows about this. My quetion is, Now when we have sex when we done, his come burns and i hate it. Even sometimes after sex it looks like sores are coming back but they gone. Is it coming back or i never actually cure

Herpes is never cured. It is impossible to say when the outbreaks are active, so the best thing to do is use condoms all the time.

If you are using condoms how can your boyfriend's *** be burning you? If this is your primary (meaning first) outbreak, then it could last weeks if not months. Just as one OB seems to be clearing up, another one begins. Also, many women report sex irritates them and brings on an OB. The best thing for you to do for awhile might be to take suppressive antivirals for awhile, especially since you will likely be highly contagious for a while and don't want to give this to your boyfriend (assuming he doesn't already have it).

When I had my first outbreak it was really painful for a cupple of months its been a year and I find they are elss painful and less frequent. Try to avoid thngs like stress because that will definetly not help your herpes. Also if you find you can not get rid of your break out try going on supressive therapy which is taking a pill daily. It can be an option to discuss with your doctor.
