What are the causes of male genital herpes?

If men are affected by genital herpes, they should pay attention to whether it is caused by not paying attention to their sexual life and health hygiene, because unclean sexual life and promiscuous behavior may cause genital herpes.

1. Impure sexual behavior

First of all, genital herpes is mainly transmitted directly through sexual contact. Many patients have had some unclean sex life before, especially young people in their thirties are more likely to suffer from this disease. This is because genital herpes is mainly caused by herpes simplex virus infection. This virus often exists in the skin and vaginal secretions. Once a male patient has sexual contact with such a person, he will be infected through sexual intercourse, and finally cause genital herpes.

2. Decreased immunity

Another reason is that male patients have weak immune function. Once they catch a cold or have any injury, they will be exposed to various germs and their chances of getting sick will increase. Generally, genital herpes can occur due to the daily living environment.

3. Contact transmission

Another reason is that when the patient is away from home, he may have used the same items as someone with genital herpes or had close contact with such a person, such as sharing a bathtub, toilet seat, and towels, which can cause genital herpes. Because herpes alone can be transmitted indirectly through breathing or various pollutants.
