I think my first outbreak is coming to a close, but I am wondering if it is then still ok to use the vitamin E oil, or should I just let things be?

Hi Nacny
Thank god i found your page it is a big help and i am bless i found it , My husband have genital herpes and didnt know it and it was passed to me funny thing is before we got married we got tested and everything came but good , Im 24 i been married 4 year he with to the doctor 2007 found out he had it, Then i went to the doctor and all the doctor told me was i show signs of the virus but she was not sure what it ment ,to me i took has i had it .I was very sad someone like me who did everything right got this std , but i got over it cause i didnt show any signs my husband and I started using condoms from that point on. my husband deployed in Nov, Now i know my body very will and i can feel when something wrong , I went to the bathroom and when i pee it started to hurt , so i figure maybe i was peeing to hard( i know but i was half way sleep) so later that day i pee again and it still hurt so i knew then something was wrong ,so i got my mirror and sit down and open my legs and look to see what was making it hurt and i had three red bumps. And i knew then i was having a outbreak ! now that im having my first outbreak everything seem to be very real and im lost what do i do ,do i just leave the outbreak alone till it goes away?. i felt sad when i saw it but i just told myself this is something i have to live with and me crying about it isnt going to make it go away . i hadnt told anyone only my husband and i are the only ones that knows i feel its not my family or friends buisniess to know . But now im learning how to handle my outbreaks . My question to you is i have vitamin E oil , do i just put it on my bumps that are in my inner lips or do i wait ? ( their not open or anything ) As long as i wash my hands i should spread the virus anywhere else right? Your friend Tiff

Hi Nancy

Thank you! I wish this would just be over. We thought that it had cleared up last week since I’d been taking Valtrex for about 7 days and things weren’t sore – but then my bf spent the night and ouch! We were wrong. ):

I’ve started the L-Lysine today and I’ll get the vit. E tomorrow.

Thanks again for sharing your experiences and I’ll keep reading all the great info you have here.

I am sorry this is your first outbreak in that it would seem you have been recently diagnosed with genital herpes. You seem to be handling it quite well since you are focusing on the physical symptoms. During the active phase or second phase – when the blister or rash is obvious and sometimes open or swollen, I most often leave it alone. If it is really itchy or painful I will put a few drops of tea tree oil in olive oil (Melissa oil is good too but it is harder to find) and put that directly on the sore. This will tingle in a good way in that it is cooling and a bit numbing so it takes the edge off. Also, the tea tree oil is antiseptic and antiviral (but it’s a bit late for that last one). This contradicts trying to keep the area dry but it’s good for a few hours or just before bed to help you sleep.

The blister will sort of lose it’s life and it’s intensity and a harder crust will form over the sore (just like when we were kids and got a bad scrape on our knee). This isn’t always obvious but you can usually tell that the sore is not as painful and it is getting smaller. This is when I use the Vitamin E because, I swear to God, it will clear up 50% faster than without it. Vitamin E is amazing. And yes, I use it wherever the sore is. If it’s in my vagina then I will apply it there. The whole dry thing doesn’t matter so much anymore because it’s good to use a moist healing agent on a drying sore.

Try not to spend much time thinking or worrying about the different stages. Fortunately (if you can look at it that way) you will get to know your outbreaks and treating them with what works for you will become second nature. Hopefully you won’t have many outbreaks. If you do, I would suggest Valtrex until you can get an idea where your head is at having been recently diagnosed.

Hang in there.

Hi – stupid question – ok not for me – this is my 1st outbreak – do you use the vitamin E inside too?

And

THANK YOU!! I feel like crying – I have been looking for info for women for 2 weeks now. No one addresses that women parts are generally not dry areas. We take probiotics to help keep things moving and flushing.
