my boyfriend has herpes but do not take his medicine everyday, is the risk must higher?

Yes,Absolutely! and if I were you I wouldn't have sex with him until he starts taking his medicine!Is ur boyfriend on suppressive treatment?? Is it to keep the herpes from breaking out?? If that is the case then u r ok, but If he is contagious at the moment DO NOT sleep with him.. ( I take it that ur talking about genital??) they can pass onto u... Once u have them.. u will never get rid of them.. They will lie dormant in ur body until the next time they flare up.. Ur boyfriend will have herpes forever.. If it is herpes round his mouth, dont kiss him either till they have cleared up.. a I said b4, once u get them u have them forever.. The risk is higher whenever the virus is infectious...Anti-viral medication cuts the risk of transmission by about 50%.

So you are about twice as likely to catch the virus if your partner is not on anti-viral medicine.
