Hello,
I am male.
I had a short protected (condom) vaginal intercourse with an ESCORT for 1-2 minutes on 10/22. I don't shave my pubic area.
For peace of mind, I completed an STD panel on day 12 post exposure (early for HSV 2).
Here are the results for IGG test:
Day 12 post exposure: HSV 2 was .92 equivocal
DAY 14: The ESCORT agreed to take the same test for HSV 2 and her test was negative.
Day 22 post exposure.: HSV 2 was 1.05 equivocal.
I have no symptoms as of day 50 . I visited an infectious disease doctor. The doctor said that the results are inconclusive and early. The doctor physically checked me. He said most probably I don't have HSV 2.
Here's are my questions:
1) What are the chances of contacting HSV 2 during a protected short encounter?
2) Is it possible that the escort tested negative at day 14 and I test equivocal at day 12?
3) What is equivocal? Please help. I read it could be early infection or inconclusive? Please share you experience.
4) Am I doomed that my HSV 2 igg results keep climbing ?
5) Should not I get some symptoms of infection by now? If stress triggered an outbreak, I been stressed for the past 50 days. Please help and share you experience and knowledge.
Thank You.
