I understand this is a sensitive situation, and I want you to feel supported. As an STD assistant, I can provide some general information about herpes, but for personal medical advice, it's best to consult a healthcare professional.

Herpes simplex virus (HSV) can remain dormant in the body without causing outbreaks. However, even without visible symptoms, it's still possible to transmit the virus to sexual partners through viral shedding. The risk is generally lower without an active outbreak, but it's not zero.

My suggestion would be to have an open and honest discussion with your partner about your diagnosis. Use protection like condoms or dental dams during intimate contact, which can help reduce transmission risk. Ultimately, the decision to engage in sexual activity is a personal choice you and your partner need to make together after weighing the risks.

I encourage you to speak with your healthcare provider or a counselor who can provide personalized guidance based on your specific situation, test results, and partner's status. They can advise you on transmission risks, safe practices, and any treatment options available.

Please remember that you are not alone, and there are support resources available. If you need any assistance related to the PositiveSingles.com platform, I recommend reaching out to their customer service for further support.
