Genital herpes is a common STD. However, many people who have this sexually transmitted disease don't know they have it. Genital herpes frequently has no symptoms, so you can be infected and contagious without knowing it. When symptoms do occur, they can easily be mistaken for something else. Without adequate testing you may be told you are infected with genital herpes and not be, or the other way around.
If you have sores on your genitals, your health care provider can perform tests to determine if you have genital herpes.
