STD Assistant
As an STD assistant, I understand your concern about the potential transmission of herpes simplex virus (HSV). The likelihood of contracting HSV-1 (oral herpes) when you already have HSV-2 (genital herpes) from someone with HSV-1 is relatively low, but not impossible. However, it's essential to consult with a healthcare professional for accurate medical advice based on your specific situation. They can provide personalized guidance and recommend appropriate preventive measures. Please feel free to reach out to the PositiveSingles.com customer support for any assistance related to using their platform or services. I'm here to provide friendly and supportive information, but for your well-being, it's crucial to seek professional medical counsel.
