Is it true that you can get herpes even if you wear a condom? Just by skin to skin contact you can get it?

I know condoms aren't 100 percent protective for any STD. But I am asking about herpes specifically?Is it true that you can get herpes even if you wear a condom? Just by skin to skin contact you can get it?
Herpes CANNOT be transmitted through a condom.





You can however get Herpes from someone even while wearing a condom. Keep in mind however that this can only occur if the person is shedding virus (An outbreak). The problem is that some people can shed virus with little to no symptoms at all (These people are often referred to as carriers). While most people will definitely know when they are having an outbreak, they can occur spontaneously and without warning. So you could be casually having sex and all of the sudden, during sex, your partner has an outbreak.





The virus can pass through the skin even if you don't have a noticeable opening in the skin, so even if you have a condom, the virus can enter your body with simple skin to skin contact in another area.





Good Luck and be safe.Is it true that you can get herpes even if you wear a condom? Just by skin to skin contact you can get it?
yes, the herpes virus is small enough to fit through a condom. and people can shed the virus without any active lesions. that being said, there are plenty of people in long term relationships with people that only had one outbreak forever ago, havent had another outbreak, and their partner never develops active lesions. still, condoms protect against other common STDs like gonorrhea %26amp; chlamydia, so suiting up is always recommended.
Most people get herpes by having sex or direct skin to skin contact with someone who is has cold sores or blisters present. When the sores are present, it means that herpes simplex virus is active. Sometimes a person can have a herpes outbreak and have no visible sores at all. People usually get herpes by having sexual contact with others who don鈥檛 know they are infected or who are having outbreaks of herpes without any sores.
YES. Herpes is a viral infection that can pass through the pores in a condom. All viruses can, HIV, hepatitis, and warts.


Remember, with sex there is a lot of friction, rubbing skin that causes micro-tears in the vaginal tissue or skin on your penis.


That friction also causes the natural pores in a condon to enlarge. They remain to small for semen to pass through, but all viruses can. That is how you'll get skin to skin contact, through the mirco-pores on all condoms.
Yes you can. Herpes sores can be all over the genitals not just on the places covered bye the condom and you can transmit the disease through skin to skin contact.
yes u can get warts from skin to skin contact. You can get cold sores from skin to skin contact
