Does my partner definitely have hsv2 if i tested positive for it back in 2009, and we have been having unprotected sex for 2 years now (2011-current)?

Herpes Two: Not necessarily. The only way to know, if your partner did not test prior to your relationship, is to get them tested with the blood test. Your contagiousness all depends on where you are infected, the exposure to that area by your partner's skin, and the rate that you shed virus. In our world we do not need to guess about this anymore. Let's get them tested.
