Hi, thank you soo much for reading this, my boyfriend and i had sex and he is postive for HSV-1 gential and we had sex twice both times with no condom and the last time he had an outbreak while we had sex
i was wondering what are my chances of getting this? its been almost 2months ive shown no symptoms of anything, no blisters no nothing, im just really worried, is there any chance im clean?
and once your exposed don't you at least have a inital outbreak of some kind within 2weeks?
First off I want you to take a deep breath and relax. HSV-1 is easier in some since to pass to one another than HSV-2. Unlike HSV-1, in order to become infected with the virus, the infected partner normally will have to have active vesicles or ulcers. The fluid inside the vesicles has to come in contact with the uninfected partners skin or region. HSV-1 can be passed just by a simple skin to skin contact or any physical contact with or without visible sores. Normally speaking, you will develope symptoms after infection 2 to 20 days, but in some rare cases symptoms can develop months after or never appear at all. In your case if it has been 2 months, theres a great chance you never became infected. There is only one way to be positive and that is having a STD or STI screening done. I hope this helps. -Best of luck-
