A member asked:
I had an igg serology test that came back positive for hsv1 & negative for hsv2.how can i find out if its oral or genital?i've never had an outbreak.

HSV1 stands for oral: while HSV2 stands for the genital form, you don't need to have an outbreak, those antibodies mean that you were exposed, disease can spread even if the sores aren't present
