You probably have seen the commercials on television talking about the herpes medications that help to prevent the spread of Herpes. I have wondered and I'm sure you have too - why can;t it be cured?
The main reason that Herpes cannot be cured is that it is a virus. Viruses such as the common cold cannot be cured by drugs because it is not alive, like other illnesses. Using medications on viruses will have no effect because a virus cannot be "killed".
Once you catch herpes, you have it forever. Of course, there may be conspiracies about the dug companies who don't want to find a cure for this sexually transmitted disease because they keep making money on the drugs and once it has been cured, they do not make as much money anymore. Each person;s opinion differs in this subject and there is no answer and probably never will be because of the extreme power of the drug companies.
In the meantime, we have to live with no cure and a preventative medicine only. How does it prevent the spread? That does not make any sense that it cannot be cured but it can be prevented?
Well, technically, it can't be prevented. What herpes drugs to is prevent transmission of the disease by reducing flare ups on an infected person. When people are infected, they will pass the virus to an uninfected sexual partner through the sores with fluid. When there are no sores, the disease can't really be spread if you are using condoms while you have sex.
When an infected person takes Valtrex other sexual disease preventative drug, it reduces the symptoms which helps to reduce the chance of transmitting sexual diseases.
By using these preventative measures, you can help to prevent the spread of herpes but it will not always work, neither will using condoms because sometimes sores occur on the thighs, where condoms don't cover.
If you want more in depth information about herpes, check out this resource for detailed information, descriptions and treatments. You will also see that it an extremely common virus, almost as common as the cold that plagues people all the time!
Maybe one day a cure will arise, but until then we have to do the responsible thing and tell our partners, if you are too shy then never have sex during an outbreak. maybe you could find herpes dating websites to fin others with the same sexual disease so that you don't have to worry about any embarrassment.
Never have sex during an outbreak to prevent transmission of herpes. Consider medications of you are infected and your partner is not, or vice versa to help prevent the spread.

How to Prevent STD's - beside using condoms
This article is not about how wearing condoms is so important because wee all know it is. This article is about alternatives on ways to prevent sexually transmitted diseases.
The article is not about abstinence, which only works if you are a Star Wars fan or a computer programmer ;) Today, I will give some ideas on ways to pretend any sexual disease by offering alternatives of what to do.
1.) Just Tease
You might think that's a crazy idea, but come to think of it, it is an everyday occurrence anyway, We love to be teased, that's why we watch music videos on MTV and go to strip clubs. Does watching strippers and sexy dancers ever get us frustrated? No, we are satisfied with not going all the way by watching the sexy performers and then going our own way.
Try this, give each other lap dances or strip tease. Then, stop and leave the house, go for ice cream or something. The pent up energy will be so great, you will feel like aroused people who are better then everyone because you have juts been teased by the ultimate! Practice restraint, you can take it! If it gets too much, of course you can pull out a condom and have sex, but make it a game by trying not to have sex.
2.) Use Sex Toys
This is the best way to have sex without having sex. Visit a sex shop for a vibrating penis and use it on her, you'll enjoy the view of closeup action in the most intimate way a couple could ever share! Please her without any physical contact. For the man, I suggest getting a pocket pussy and use it on him. Not only is this the best way to prevent any sicknesses, but it is extremely fun to do. Try it once and you'll be hooked.
I know of many couples who don't even have sex any more because they play with sex toys so often and they really do feel better then real sex. Think about it this way, does your partner's penis vibrate? Does your girlfriends pussy vibrate? Of course not! All you need it some lubrication and enjoy the greatest feeling ever.
The couples I know that use sex toys almost every day also like it because it saves them money on condoms and helps to prevent unwanted pregnancies too. Browse for sex toys together and really enjoy your alternative and new sex life.
3.) Go Something Adrenaline Pumping
Sex and adrenaline have the same hormonal implications. You get the same exhilarating feeling from sex that you do from same type of adrenaline infused activity. The serotonin, the pleasure receptors ion the brain flow and make you feel good, the same hormones that are involved in orgasms are also involved when you feel excited and happy.
Read more about the pleasure receptors in the brain and their relation to sex in this medical article to see what I mean and understand the reason behind why I suggest an adrenaline activity instead of sexual intercourse.
Try going white water rafting or if you really feel the urge, go skydiving. Something to get your adrenaline pumping will make you forget completely about sex because you will be completely wrapped in whatever activity you are going. Try renting ATV's and exploring nature trails. Juts remember to be safe, wear helmets and get appropriate training for whatever activity you do be safe because if there is no safety, there might be no you!
Conclusion:
These are juts a few popular alternatives to sex and things you and your partner can do to prevent STD's. The side effects are also that you will prevent pregnancy and you two will engage in intimacy acts beyond regular sex. You can get to know each other on intimate level and enjoy each other's personality more then their body. Give it a try and keep yourselves healthy!
