Re: Active non-genital herpes and birthFrom: Braun, R. Daniel (rbraun@iupui.edu)Mon Aug 24 06:15:12 1998
Vaginal. Dan -----Original Message----- From: Suzanne S. Powell [SMTP:suzannep@mindspring.com] Sent: Sunday, August 23, 1998 3:41 PM To: Multiple recipients of list Subject: Active non-genital herpes and birth A current client of mine has active herpes lesions on her left wrist only. She has never had it genitally, and has been using oral and topical meds for 2 weeks now. She will be 40 weeks tomorrow. Her dr has been saying that if she went into labor before the lesions were completely clear, she would probably have to have a c-section. All info I can find about herpes and c-sections relates to genital herpes lesions only. What would be your preferred route of delivery for this woman prior to total clearance of the lesions -- vaginal or c-section? And if you have any studies that refer to non-genital herpes and delivery, please pass along the references. The dr we are working with is open to researching this more. **************************************************** Suzanne S.
