Is is possible to have herpes after waiting 4 months to test?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
To test or not to: Many things are possible in life. One's doctor will decide to test or not to test. If the doctor feels a test is needed, one can get a herpes blood test that differentiates between Herpes 1 and 2. Sometimes people get a herpes test if they are marrying a person who already has herpes. The uninfected person is usually trying to figure out how to avoid catching genital herpes.
