Genital herpes is a sexually transmitted infection (STI) caused by the herpes simplex virus (HSV). There are two types of HSV: HSV-1 and HSV-2.
Genital herpes is spread through skin-to-skin contact during sexual activity. The virus can be present in the genital area even with no visible sores. People with genital herpes can spread the virus even when they do not have any symptoms.
