waxing :s

[Sydney J]

Can I still get a brazilian wax with ghsv1 if I'm not having an ob? I don't see why not??

Talk to your aesthetician and make sure she doesn't "double dip."

Thanks for asking this, I was wondering the same thing!

Sure you can but just bear in mind that in some folks, it can cause an OB.

I still wax (both at the salon and at home) and I've sometimes has an OB due to the trauma to the area.... but not often, perhaps maybe 1 in 10 times.

The first few times, I took a couple of valtrex tablets the day or two before and took lysine to assist, but everyone is different so you may be just fine!

Good luck.

I was wondering the same thing! This weekend I am about to get my first brazilian since hsv...

Heck yeah you can get a wax.. Now i dont know how your outbreaks are, but I have got a wax several times since I had herpes, and I have not gotten an outbreak. i think waxing is great. it allows me to see what the hell is going on down there.

I did a full brazilian on Sunday...today is Thursday. No problems whatsoever. Yahoo.

I'd been wondering the same thing actually. Excellent news, I shall continue...
