I have genital HSV-2. I've had it for years. I've met a girl diagnosed with oral HSV-2 a couple of years ago. She breaks out in her throat. Since we both already have HSV-2 can I pass my genital HSV-2 to her genitals and her pass hers to my oral region?

Can I have a healthy baby with prior syphilis history?

I was diagnosed and treated for syphilis in 2019 and found out I was pregnant in November 2020. My titers were very low, doctor said it’s so low that it’s basically negative. I was concerned that I would transmit it to my newborn so I tried to ask as many questions as possible before aborting due to psychological difficulties. Doctors were assuring that it’s possible BUT it is also still likely. I was so confused and just hoped for the best outcome. Now I’m scared again.

Should I date someone with HSV2 if I have HSV1?

As I understand it, you are less likely to have outbreaks (once a year or less) with HSV1 than with HSV2 (5 to 10 per year). Is it smarter then just to date those with HSV1 to no worsen your condition? Or is having one or both just the same thing?

I have HSV1. My only outbreak was genital. I recently developed soreness in the back of my mouth, on my gums but I cannot tell if I have a sore. Is this a normal or possible place to get a sore, or is this an unususal location for a break out and more indicative of a dental issue like a gum infection?
