Is genital psoriasis contagious?

  1. Definitely not! Although there are conditions that may look like psoriasis that are contagious, so best to check with your Dermatologist if you're concerned. As a final note, genital psoriasis may make you more susceptible to STIs, so always be careful 😀

    1. How then do you tell someone you're with for the first time?

      1. , when I first started dating my now husband, I told him I had an autoimmune disease called psoriasis and that it made me a little self conscious. He then went away and did his own research. I took that as a good sign! What has your experience been like?
