Can HSV 2 virus be cured 100%? during non outbreaks, is it safe to have unprotected sex with my partner? Can sanitary pads have an allergic reaction looking like blisters similar to HSV I requested the HSV test to be done when going to see my GP with regards to another ailment. My ex had affairs. He stated that I had HSV 1 (I can agree with this as I get the occasional cold sore on my lip) but stated that my HSV2 could be a Fals e positive. I have non whatsoever outbreaks, and the only ever time I got blisters was when wearing a sanitary towel, upper out area of my buttock, where the sanitary pad had contact with. GP said it could be a false positive, to repeat the test in 2 weeks time then. I read on the internet, yes that this can happen. A PCR test is the other test used to confirm, which I had routinely done at my GIT clinic recently, and it was normal. What would you please advise me?

### output:

HI, thanks for using Chat Doctor False positive tests can occur with any test, but the chance of a false positive can vary from one test to the other. You can consider repeating the test to see if it was inaccurate especially since another test had a negative results. There are some tests that have a high rate of accuracy, close to a 100%. The best would be an HSV western block test. In terms of curing this infection, it is not cured. Once a person has been infected, it is possible for transmission to occur both when a rash is present and also when they are no symptoms-asymptomatic transmission. I hope this helps
