Final answer.  Further questions will be deleted without comment.

This is another silly question.  There is no evidence you have recently acquired genital herpes.  If you had genital herpes you could not spread it to your kids unless you have sex with them,.

I have already answered this. My answers will not change.  There is no meaningful risk for HIV and no evidence that you acquired herpes from the episode you describe.  Please stop repeating your questions.  EWH

Sir, I discuss with my wife for the episode. Our family is not complete as we one child, needed another one. Now we are worry, if i get infected than i also infect my wife and then our next baby will born infected. What is your opinion in this mater.

[Edward W Hook, MD]

You have wasted your money having an IgM test for herpes.  Most experts recommend against ever getting this test.   These tests are completely unreliable and have many, many false positive results.  As I have told you before, this does not sound like herpes following the low risk exposure that you described previously.  EWH
