Pathogenesis :
Transmission of the herpes simplex virus typically occurs from sexual contact with people who have active ulcerative lesions. It can also take place via persons without clinical manifestation of disease who are shedding HSV virus or on whose mucosal surfaces the virus is replicating.Transmission of HSV-2 may be more efficient from men to women. Think about the plumbing. This may partly be due to the higher rate of disease recurrences in men which may make them more infectious. Asymptomatic shedding occurs in both men and women, but is more easily detected in women, mainly from the cervix and vulva.
The transmission from mother to baby usually occurs during vaginal delivery and is dependent on the prevalence of genital viral shedding at the time of delivery. Intrauterine (5%) and postnatal transmissions (10%) are rarer. Intrapartum transmission is rare in recurrent maternal infections (3-5%), but rises to between 33% and 50% where the mother has a first episode genital infection, with the greatest neonatal morbidity following late gestation primary infections.
Typically genital herpes are caused by HSV-2 however in recent times there has been a trend of HSV-1 causing genital herpes in young adults. It has been recognized that HSV-1 herpes infection can be transmitted to the genital area via oral sex.
HSV-1:
HSV-2:
Now you know that a large percentage of the population has HSV-1 and HSV-2 increases with unprotected sexual activity and the virus can shed even if there is not a lesion present.
What to do?
Patients bring their documentation of their viral loads and after 3 10 pass MAH treatments, they retest and we see the numbers change. We have seen acute infections or IgM antibodies completely disappear, IgG antibodies from previous infections reduce and if someone is really lucky - they seroconvert; meaning the virus does not show up in their blood labs.
We have specialized medicines specific for herpes from Germany that are put into your MAH treatment to lure the virus out of tissue storage so that high dose ozone can bomb it in the bloodsteam. Herpes does cross blood-brain barrier and is linked to dementia and Alzheimer's in later life. We can review your diet and lifestyle habits and make strategic changes so you are not a good environment for viruses to thrive in. We also identify your "dirty genes", clean up your diet and lifestyle habits to help prevent recurrence. While there are no 100% guarantees of a cure - I.V. Ozone is one of your best treatment options for better health.
