I had my first outbreak June 2018. From that time till February 2019, I’ve consistently had outbreaks monthly. After February 2019 no outbreaks, it was a beautiful period.

Since I broke up with my ex and want to find a sexual partner, who of course I will going tell. I decided to take the antivirals which I was told daily intake will decrease chances of transmitting as well as using protection. On the third day after beginning the antivirals, I get symptoms of an outbreak and a day later here come the sores.

Do you think it was an coincidence? I’m now doubtful of the antivirals. I haven’t taken them since Feb 2019 and as soon as I begin again I have an outbreak.
