most likely, she has herpes, which is a bacterial infection that spreads quickly, even when the blisters are inactive.
most likely, she has chlamydia, which means the blisters are not contagious but the virus is.
most likely, she has trichomoniasis, which means the blisters are not contagious but the virus is.

The correct answer is A. Most likely, she has herpes and can transmit the viral infection even when the blisters are inactive.

Explanation:

Herpes is a common Sexual Transmitted Infection (STI) that is caused by a virus known as Herpes Simple Virus. Like other STI in some people, this has no symptoms but it is often related to symptoms such as vaginal discharge, ulcers, and blisters. Besides this, the virus cannot be cured but only controlled; due to this, people with Herpes can transmit the infection to others through unprotected sex even if symptoms such as blisters are controlled or do not appear.

The previous ideas suggest Lorraine likely has herpes virus because one of the main symptoms of this is blisters. Also, due to the way herpes transmits Lorrain is displaying unhealthy behaviors because she can transmit the virus even if the blisters are inactive (option A).
