HSV1+ 2 Screening
We are planning to go ahead with IVF. Infertility specialist asked for STD panel check for both of us.
Every test in both of us is negative barring HSV 1+2.
My husband HSV 1+2(IGM) is negative with Index value of .81 and HSV 1+2 (IGG) is positive with value of 18.40.
My HSV 1+2 ( IGM) is positive with value of 1.35 and HSV 1+2 (IGG) is negative with value of .50.
I have attached the reports as well. IGG of my husband and IGM of mine.
Also, we don't have any symptoms not even a lesion or blister.
I've been suggested for HSV PCR. Does it really required ?
Kindly advice, if we can go ahead with IVF process without any issues to future kid.

Hi, you should get this test done. If confirmation comes for infection, treatment of it should be done first before opting for pregnancy.
