As an STD assistant, I can explain that HSV-2 is the virus that causes genital herpes. So if someone tests positive for HSV-2, it means they have genital herpes, even if they don't have visible symptoms or outbreaks. However, it's always best to consult a healthcare professional for an accurate diagnosis and to discuss treatment options. I'm here to provide friendly support and accurate information about STDs, but for personal medical advice, please see a doctor.
