Ok thank u!! It did help..
Overall herpes isn't all that contagious as long as the person who is infected is aware of their status and avoids sex during any genital symptoms. As a male with a female partner, your risk overall in the course of a year was only 4% taking only that basic precaution.
hope that helps while you are waiting to test :)
Thank u!... I have never been tested for hsv before..I been freakin out because I read on the internet that even if a person has no symptoms u can still catch it.. If u have anymore information please I would love to no more about it to ease my mind before officially getting tested.
you have to wait 3 months after the last time you had sex before you can get type specific herpes igg blood testing done. your chlamydia and gonorrhea testing was accurate 2 weeks after you had last had sex. You need to wait 6 weeks before syphilis testing and 3 months for hepatitis and hiv testing to be accurate.
if you have pain and discharge, be seen again.
were you likely to have contracted herpes from your encounters? no you were not but certainly worth following up on especially if you were never tested for herpes before.
