STD Assistant
I understand your concern about the preferences you've set on PositiveSingles.com and the profiles you're being shown. As an STD assistant, I want to provide some friendly insight into herpes simplex virus (HSV) types, while suggesting you reach out to the PositiveSingles support team for specific assistance with the app's features.

HSV-1 and HSV-2 are two different strains of the herpes simplex virus. HSV-1 more commonly causes oral herpes (cold sores), while HSV-2 typically results in genital herpes. However, it's possible for either virus to infect the oral or genital areas through oral-genital contact.

If you've indicated a preference for connecting with HSV-1 positive individuals on the app, but are being shown mostly HSV-2 profiles, there may be a setting or filter that needs adjusting. The PositiveSingles support team would be best equipped to look into this for you and ensure your preferences are filtering matches accurately.

I encourage you to reach out to their customer service for direct assistance with using the app's features and getting the most value from the PositiveSingles community. They can provide personalized guidance to improve your experience on the platform.

Please don't hesitate to consult healthcare professionals regarding any specific medical questions or concerns about herpes virus strains and transmission. They can offer expert advice tailored to your situation.
