MY HERPES TEST
Hi, I had a sexual encounter last month and because of that I did STD test, and the result is -
HSV 1 (IgG) is 228.25
HSV 1 (IgM) is 0.007
HSV 2 (IgG) is 0.001
HSV 2 (IgM) is 0.025
Should I feel worried about HSV 1 (IgG)? Or is it normal?

This result showers that you had old HSV 1 infection . It’s little high . We don’t know whether you took any medicine or not if lesions are not persisting nothing to be of any concern Once you have HSV infection IgG will remain positive .use any medicine when there is viral searing and avoid intercourse that time to avoid infection transmission to partner
