Am I at risk in this case?
Hi, I have two questions and I haven't been able to find an answer online, especially in the situation I've been involved in. I'm very sorry about the details but it's required for it will be understood better. A few days ago I've had a sexual encounter with two persons at the same time. A woman and a man, the man we found out had genital herpes. And I was wondering if I should be worried about being infected now. The woman gave oral sex to the other guy and gave oral sex to me after, so I was wondering if...there would of been a possibility for the virus to travel from his genitals to mine from her saliva. I have spoken to the other guy and he said he wasn't worried about infecting us because he wasn't having an outbreak when our sexual encounter occured, but I know there's also the viral shedding that can happen even if there are no blisters or soars. Am I at risk?
My second question : If I wanna be 100% sure weither I'm infected or not, can I be tested for it at a clinic? I've heard you can't get tested unless you have blisters or soars. But can't it be detected through sperm, urin or blood? After all...it IS a virus?
Thank you for listening, if anyone would have answers, I would greatly appreciate it...

Am I at risk in this case
the risk is there bc to spread h only skin to skin contact is needed...I am assuming you are a male (may be wrong) so you have not had sex with the guy... your risk, I'd say, is low but some yes. Get tested. Get the elisa blood test done to know for sure. Most people get infected when there are no symptoms present...good luck to you and be careful ;) H as in HSV is no big deal you don't want anything worse to bug ur mind:)
