I just told my future husband that I have herpes, he was shocked and worried at frist?

But when I educate him on the std he understood, he still loves me and I was so scared to tell him. Is hpv and herpes the same? Whats the difference?I just told my future husband that I have herpes, he was shocked and worried at frist?
You should've told him a LONG long time ago.....like before sex ever happened!


He has a right to be mad, scared %26amp; confused because you put him at risk for something without his knowledge...





Anyhow


HPV= Warts


HSV= Herpes


I can't imagine you educating someoneI just told my future husband that I have herpes, he was shocked and worried at frist?
YES,It's the same. Genital herpes,a contagious viral infection that appears as painful blisters or lesions on the genital organs. It can be managed medically, but not cured.
Human papillomavirus (HPV) is the name of a group of viruses that infect the skin. There are more than 70 different types of HPV. Certain types of HPV cause warts on the hands or feet, and other types can cause warts on the genitals. But some people never have warts they can see and many never get warts, so most people with HPV do not know they have it. About 30 of these types are sexually transmitted and cause genital HPV. Some types of genital HPV may cause genital warts, while other types of genital HPV are linked to abnormal cell changes on the cervix (detected through Paps).

What is herpes?





Herpes is a common and usually mild recurrent skin condition; most infections are unrecognized and undiagnosed.


Herpes is caused by a virus: the herpes simplex virus (HSV).


HSV is in a family of viruses called herpesviruses. This family includes Epstein-Barr virus (the cause of mono) and the varicella zoster virus (the cause of chicken pox and shingles).


Although there are several viruses in the herpesvirus family, each is a separate virus and different. Having one virus does not mean you will have another.


HSV can cause oral herpes (cold sores or fever blisters on the mouth or facial area) as well as genital herpes (similar symptoms in the genital region).


There are two types of herpes simplex: herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) and herpes simplex virus type 2 (HSV-2).


The majority of oral herpes cases are caused by HSV-1 and the majority of genital herpes cases are caused by HSV-2; however, type-1 or type-2 can occur in either the genital or oral area.
No, they are different. The differences are just the symptoms. They are both viral and can not be cured, and both have outbreaks of sores. Your doctor would tell you if you had HPV, but I'm sure you don't!





Good luck :)
Maybe you shoulda told him around the fifth or sixth date, not at the engagement party.


That said, with proper management and protection it is very possible for you both to have a normal sex life without him becoming infected too. Also, ask your doctor about a pill you can take to reduce outbreaks. Also, check out www.herpes.org - everything you ever wanted to know, including the links between herpes, HPV, and others.


Good luck!
HPV is Human papillomaviruses and herpes is herpes simplex virus. HPV can cause warts and cervical cancer, herpes causes herpes outbreaks. GOOD job telling him





a good website is the center for disease control


www.cdc.gov/STD/
#1 - Herpes and Human Papilloma Virus are, indeed, NOT the same. HPV is more common with females than with males, and is often statistically linked (maybe even physically linked) to cervical cancer. I don't think HPV is very contagious, but HSV most-certainly IS.





#2 - Are you certain you have Herpes? Is it genital herpes or what people commonly call ';cold sores.'; (Both are Herpes Simplex Virus and can only be discerned by microscopic examination, and each ';type'; can occur at either location.) Get as much information as you can from your doctor and share it with your fiance'.
