I have found this double-blind study to be evidence to strongly support the use of Aloe Vera for Treating Genital Herpes.

Genital herpes:

Two randomised, double blind trials compared topical aloe vera cream (0.5% hydrophilic) or placebo three times daily for two weeks in 180 men with a first episode of genital herpes; one also assessed topical aloe vera gel. Response rates in the two trials were almost identical. The proportions of patients cured in the two trials were 70% and 67% with aloe vera cream, 45% with aloe vera gel, and 7.5% and 7.0% with placebo. Times to healing were 4.8 and 4.9 days with aloe vera cream, 7.0 days with aloe vera gel, and 14 and 12 days with placebo.
