Your Questions, Answered
-
Yes, absolutely! This is genuinely the guide Jessie wished existed for anyone navigating a new, or existing diagnosis. It can be a very difficult time to navigate on your own and you deserve support. Whether you're a few days into your diagnosis or still processing it months later, it meets you exactly where you're at.
-
Absolutely. So many people are never given proper education at the time of diagnosis, so this fills those gaps no matter how long you've been living with HSV. It also covers ongoing management for anyone still navigating recurrent outbreaks.
-
Definitely. It's written to be suitable for everyone. It can be really confusing navigating understanding how transmission works and applying this to sex. This can be suitable for new partners needing to understand more, or existing partners.
-
Not at all. It’s written to be accessible for everyone, especially those feeling overwhelmed or confused. You can start from wherever you're at, no prior knowledge needed. You can read Herpes Explained here if you want to learn a little bit more about herpes before investing in the guide.
-
Yes, yes and YES! You can have a healthy, fulfilling sex life, and this guide walks through exactly what that looks like in practice.
-
Disclosure can feel very scary, but it doesn’t have to. Inside the guide, you'll find real conversation scripts and a step-by-step approach so you can walk into that conversation feeling prepared instead of overwhelmed.
-
There's currently no cure, but that's not the whole story. If you are experiencing recurrent, frequent outbreaks, this can be supported with the right support in place. The guide covers what supports exists and you deserve to live well in your body.
-
It is possible for the viral load to be active on the skin even with no visible symptoms, this can be referred to as ‘prodomal’ or ‘shedding’ times. This is one of THE most confusing parts of HSV but it DOES NOT have to be. This guide breaks down understanding how the virus works, and how you can feel confident in understanding and navigating living with HSV.
-
Naturopathic support can play a real very important role in managing recurrent outbreaks - nutrition, immunity, stress and hormones are all important considerations. This is covered more in-depth in the guide, but if you like to understand more about this, Jessie has written more about this in Living With Herpes: How A Naturopath Can Help.
