I have had acorn herpes. Today I was at the dermatologist-venereologist, the doctor prescribed me the appropriate ointment and tablets to take after the herpes disappeared. When can I start intercourse again after herpes is gone?

In the case of glans herpes, it would be wise to hold off until the lesions have healed. I don't know what treatment you have received, but the risk of relapse is high. Therefore, it is important to avoid contacts from the moment the changes take place.
