The 7 major genital herpes markets are expected to exhibit a CAGR of 3.49% during 2024-2034.

The genital herpes market has been comprehensively analyzed in IMARC's new report titled "Genital Herpes Market: Epidemiology, Industry Trends, Share, Size, Growth, Opportunity, and Forecast 2024-2034". Genital herpes is a common sexually transmitted illness that is caused by the herpes simplex virus (HSV). It primarily affects the genital and anal regions of the body, but it can also occur on the skin around the buttocks and thighs. The primary mode of viral spread is through sexual activity with an infected individual or direct skin-to-skin contact with a diseased area. Some common symptoms of this ailment include itching, tingling, or burning sensations, painful sores or blisters in the genital or anal region, fever, headache, muscle aches, swollen lymph nodes, etc. The diagnosis of the illness is mainly based on the patient's medical history, clinical features, and physical examination. Additionally, blood workups are recommended to detect the presence of antibodies against HSV, indicating a past or current infection even when no active symptoms are present. The healthcare provider will perform a polymerase chain reaction (PCR) test to determine the genetic material (DNA) of the herpes virus in the patient's sample. Furthermore, a viral culture screening is also required to confirm the diagnosis and identify the subtypes of the virus.

The increasing prevalence of unprotected sexual activities, including vaginal, anal, or oral sex, that can enhance the likelihood of viral transmission among individuals is primarily driving the genital herpes market. In addition to this, the rising cases of weakened immune systems, which impair the body's ability to recognize and attack the pathogen, allowing it to replicate and cause active infections, are creating a positive outlook for the market. Moreover, the widespread adoption of antiviral drugs, like acyclovir, valacyclovir, famciclovir, etc., to shorten the duration of outbreaks, alleviate symptoms, and reduce the risk of viral transmission is further bolstering the market growth. Apart from this, the inflating application of topical analgesics, since they can be applied directly to the sores or blisters, thereby accelerating the healing mechanism and improving overall well-being, is acting as another significant growth-inducing factor. Additionally, the emerging popularity of nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors, which prevent viral replication by interfering with the DNA synthesis process, is expected to drive the genital herpes market during the forecast period.
