Hi,
Genital herpes is very tough to go. It can show outbreak for a few months, in spite of treatment. That's why the long course. Please continue taking the pills regularly. You can get examined by the expert, he may feel like ordering culture and sensitivity test.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
