Patient Question
What treatment options should be considered for genital herpes in pregnant women?
Answered by Ms. Maryam Reinsch
Antiviral medications like Aciclovir or Valaciclovir are recommended for treating genital herpes in pregnant individuals. In instances where skin lesions are detected during delivery and the rupture of membranes happened less than six hours prior, a caesarean section is essential.
