How harmful is Genital herpes in women? Six major hazards of Genital herpes should not be underestimated
Genital herpes is mainly transmitted through sexual contact. The patient has blisters in the vulva, labia major and labia minor, clitoris or thighs, buttocks, etc. The blisters will slowly scab with the development of the disease. When suffering from Genital herpes, do not be careless. The primary task is to go to a regular hospital to receive treatment.
The harm of women suffering from Genital herpes
1. Have obvious symptoms of nausea, vomiting, and headache
Genital herpes is caused by herpes virus infection, and patients will have nausea and headache symptoms. A small portion of the population may experience herpes virus entry into the brain, causing women to develop brain diseases. Typically, the disease occurs within 72 hours, paralyzing normal breathing and nerves, leading to the development of mental illness.
2. Increased risk of AIDS
AIDS is a serious sexually transmitted disease. At present, there is no treatment, and only preventive measures can be taken in life. Although Genital herpes does not directly lead to AIDS, the frequent occurrence of Genital herpes can increase the risk of AIDS. So patients need to choose a regular hospital for examination and treatment.
3. Pain unbearable
Women have herpes for a longer time than men, especially when suffering from Genital herpes for the first time. Herpes are mainly concentrated in the urethra, vagina and vulva, and can spread to the thighs and buttocks in serious cases, affecting normal sleep and work.
4. Inducing systemic diseases
When suffering from Genital herpes, the virus will invade the visceral nerves, thus causing gastrointestinal and Urinary system symptoms. The virus may also invade the peritoneum or pleura, giving patients a strong sense of stimulation.
5. Fetal transmission after pregnancy
When infected with the herpes virus, pregnant women may transmit it to the fetus through the placenta, and during delivery, the fetus may be infected through the birth canal. If the fetus is infected, it can lead to fetal death in the uterus or premature birth. If the fetal brain is damaged, it can lead to congenital eye diseases or intellectual disabilities.
6. Increasing the risk of cervical cancer
Recurrent Genital herpes is the direct factor inducing cervical cancer. After research, it was found that infection with the herpes virus is positively proportional to cervical cancer. This type of patient will show high positivity for herpes virus antibodies.
Kind reminder
If one of the spouses is diagnosed with Genital herpes, sexual behavior should be avoided during the onset and treatment. Female patients need to have their condition cured before they can conceive, in order to avoid fetal death, miscarriage, or premature birth. If transmitted to the fetus, it can affect its intellectual development. Herpes simplex can harm lips or eyes, so avoid contact. Do not share toothbrushes, razors, or towels with others. Be clean and try to wear a condom during sexual activity. Find ways to improve resistance and immunity, balance nutrition intake, eat more fresh vegetables and fruits, and maintain a peaceful mindset.
