What is the percentage of a woman passing herpes?

The percentage of a woman passing herpes to a sexual partner can vary based on several factors, including whether she has active symptoms and if protection is used. On average, the risk of transmission from an infected woman to a male partner during unprotected sex is estimated to be about 4-10% per year. However, this risk can be significantly reduced with the use of antiviral medications and condoms. It's important for individuals to discuss their health status and take preventive measures to reduce the risk of transmission.
