Causes of Genital Herpes

Genital Herpes spreads whenever there is direct contact with a person having it. The Herpes Simplex Virus spreads through oral sex and also sexual intercourse. It spreads through skin contact too. Genital Herpes is a difficult disease to contain because more often than not the carrier of this virus will not realise it themselves as they will not show any visible symptoms at all i.e. visible sores etc. But in their case too genital herpes is very contagious which could cause other outbreaks.
