The only practical way of infecting someone is through sexual activity. Only the boxer short area could possibly have shedding virus and the bulk of the time this is insufficient amounts of the virus.

Children of parents with HSV2 do not become infected through normal living family activities.

That is not correct, probably 20% or less of people with genital HSV2 do not experience symptoms.

It is not really a great choice to pretend you have genital herpes if you do not. I think it is reasonable to either assume you do not or seek proper testing (even if difficult) so you know for sure.

Thank you for being so patient, thank you. You mean to say that, unlike some of the said. If a person suffers from genital bleb, still have obvious symptoms, or can be found is? I let the frightened, because some of the content, a lot of people are infected with genital herpes, cannot find symptoms, only through the examination to diagnose or exclude.

It is highly unlikely that you have genital herpes. Do not let a flawed test such as IgM ruin your life. You have no reason to even suspect you have genital herpes.

Genital herpes is not typical symptoms for most people? So, I have no typical blisters or cannot be found. I'm worried about is this, afraid I have but not present typical symptoms, so did not find, finally caused to infect others.
