How do you actually prevent passing herpes to someone you love? In this episode of the Herpes Wellness Podcast, Cat Dupree breaks down the facts about herpes transmission, prevention, and what the science really says about lowering the chances.

You’ll learn how HSV1 and HSV2 are transmitted, why asymptomatic shedding is so important to understand, and what the numbers look like when it comes to daily antivirals, barrier methods like condoms and dental dams, and lifestyle choices.

Cat also explains the difference between 500 mg and 1 gram of valacyclovir — including how each dose affects outbreaks, viral shedding, and the risk of transmission — and why the right dose depends on your goals and your doctor’s guidance.

Whether you’re living with genital herpes (HSV2), oral herpes (HSV1), or you just want to understand what prevention really looks like, this episode gives you facts, perspective, and practical steps you can use with confidence. In this episode you’ll hear:

✔️ The truth about herpes transmission and prevention

✔️ How asymptomatic shedding works with both HSV1 and HSV2

✔️ Why herpes tests aren’t always included in standard STD panels

✔️ The difference between 500 mg and 1 gram Valacyclovir

✔️ How combining antivirals with barrier methods can lower the risk
