How is genital herpes treated and can this be treated online?
Yes, a doctor can treat genital herpes online based on your symptoms during a virtual consultation. At Contro, men and women over the age of 18 can chat with one of our Partner Doctors about their symptoms and get treatment prescribed and delivered to them.
A short course of antivirals is administered to alleviate symptoms for current outbreaks of genital herpes, and up to three months of chronic suppression treatment can be prescribed to individuals experiencing re-occurring outbreak symptoms.
The prescribed treatment would depend on your doctor's diagnosis of your symptoms which will be carefully determined during your digital consultation and evaluation of your submitted health assessment.
