Now that parter came back negative for hsv2 how much confidence should I have on that?
With 92% certainty, the is correct.

I came back negative for Hsv-2 at 13 weeks.
Between your partner being HSV 2 and you and also being negative, I think you can count on that.

I know that she hasn’t been active since the last time we engaged on sexual acts.

I have a couple of more questions-

About how much should I be expecting to shed right now without antivirals?
We don’t know exactly how long you’ve been infected, but around 4 months? So you are probably shedding on about 6% of days – 6 out of 100

Will oral sex be more contagious since it’s hsv1?
You mean someone giving you oral sex? Then the answer is less, not more because HSV 1 sheds way less often than HSV 2 and because about half the population already has HSV 2.

Does it matter the amount of time when having sex ?
Like will 10 minutes pose the same risk as 30 mins? Longer sex, more risk
