How long do I have to wait to get tested provided no outbreaks ?
I contracted genital herpes orally. He had no signs of cold sores at the time of oral sex (I didn't notice any and so he says). However, I had my first symptoms within the next 24 hours.
So- maybe since you haven't had an outbreak, you don't have it, (let's hope) but I have been reading a bit on the virus and many people don't even notice symptoms during their first outbreak.
Get tested for peace of mind. You could very well have it.
Best of luck.

I would get tested just to confirm cause you cant get it twice in the same area.
If I do not have any symptoms after 2 weeks is it safe to assume I do not have herpes should I get tested ?
If this was an active herpes lip sore, and rubbing took place, no way to estimate your risk but will asy its higher than no sore at the time. Folks can have sex multiple times with an active sore and still not contract it. Also in a first time exposure, its very possible to contract it both oral and genital, but his is only for the initial exposure.
