HSV-1 exposure about a year ago, no outbreak?

[15t]

Hi there. About a year ago, my (now ex-) girlfriend performed oral sex on me a couple times with a cold sore on her upper lip. I have recently been in anew relationship, we got tested and everything was negative but I didn't have a herpes screening. I never had a herpes outbreak (that I know of, I've heard HSV-1 genitally can be mild) but I'm worried I could be asymptomatic and about passing it on to my new girlfriend. (I may or may not have had oral HsV-1 outbreaks as a child, I can't remember, which could effect transmission to me genitally).
So my questions are, 1. Should I be worried about being asymptomatic a year later?
2. If I do have HSV-1 in the genitals can I pass it on to my partner?
And 3. I've heard that after 1 or 2 outbreaks usually HSV-1 of the genitals just goes away, with minimal risk of shedding? Is that true?

Thanks!!!

It is questionable as to the proportion of truly asymptomatic people with HSV genitally (as in absolutely no outbreak ever on their genitals). As an adult, a HSV infection will cause issues almost always, particularly as a primary infection.

Hence with no known outbreak genitally, the odds of genital HSV is minimal.

An oral HSV1 infection is a reasonable chance simply because of the high incidence in the population and the chance of having been infected before living memory.

Okay, one last question, based on the information presented do you think it would be safe to say I don't have HsV1 or 2? Being Asymptomatic, etc. (obviously not an official diagnosis but to give me peace of mind)

Let's keep to one thread.

99% of the time, a fever is just that, related to a minor illness.

Again if you have concerns, then both of you get tested. Although it might seem interesting playing with probabilities, they come out over thousands of people. The answer for an individual is infected or not, there is no in between.

Being a relative expert do you mind if I ask you another question? If I have been with 2 partners, one within the last year and one with one encounter about 5-6 months ago, what are the odds that they (as I asked their STD status), are asymptomatic for HSV2 and I contracted it and am also asymptomatic. I heard of people not knowing they have it for year and that scares me.

Are you a Dr.? That's awesome if you are and thank you for your time. So you wouldn't be asymptomatic for a HsV-1 genital transmission, for a year anyway?

My own research and practical experience with HSV1 and  HSV2 (roughly 40 years and 20 years respectively).

As far as I'm aware neither of us have ever had an outbreaks so we are probably negative for hsv-2, and maybe both positive for hsv-1.  Also, thanks for the reply Fleetwood 20, but out of compulsiveness, what resource did you get that information from?

The more important point is that HSV1 will not show up on the genitals unannounced. A primary infection with HSV1 as an adult is very typically a pretty ordinary affair with multiple lesions that at best itch madly.

You may also have an oral HSV1 infection from your childhood that gave you protection from a genital infection of HSV1.

I would have no concerns regarding genital HSV. If knowledge of an oral infection is important for the two of you, then test. Do you whether your partner has HSV1 or HSV2?
