  4. Herpes result. Igg came back negative?

Herpes result

2018-01-11 18:00:49
I received iGG and iGM testing for HSV1 and 2. The igg results are: HSV1 0.10 (negative) hsv2 0.13 (negative). The iGM results are: HSV1 <1:10 (negative) and hsv2 1:10 (equivocal). Should I be worried at all? What are the chances that an equivocal iGM screen for hsv2 means I have herpes if the igg came back negative?

If IgG is positive it means u had a past Infection and if IgM is positive it means u have had a fresh Infection and it is a cause of worry and appropriate Medications is necessary to resolve it .
