Reply To: Male with HSV2 performing oral on negative female

Thank You Ms. Terri!

Those are my results, male. These were to confirm my initial results from Sept. 2022 which were:

HSV1 IgG 15.80
HSV2 IgG 7.28

Prior to those initial results Sept. 2022, I had only had one suspected outbreak, which were bumps on the head. At the time, I didn’t know what it was. Painful, nothing white, and gone within a week. No meds. I moved on without giving it much thought. This was roughly a month prior to Sept. 2022 when I tested, so July/August. Is is possible that this was my initial outbreak? The outbreak in Sept 2022 is the only one with the burning, white ulcers on the shaft near the head, and and very painful. No other issues during the rest of my life prior to.

How is length of time with HSV2 determined?

At what point should female confirm with a test?
