A member asked:

Why wont doctors test for herpes with no symptoms?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Herpes simplex: Many doctors will be happy to test you, but the results will be positive in an overwhelmingly large segment of the population (up to 95%), and so these tests are virtually meaningless. Perhaps the doctor is trying to save you money.
