Yes, even if you have type 1 herpes that initially appeared in the anal area, the virus can potentially shed from other areas, including the penis. This is because once the herpes simplex virus (HSV-1) enters your body, it can affect different areas through a process called viral shedding, even when there are no visible symptoms.

However, for the most accurate understanding of your specific situation and risk factors, I strongly recommend consulting with a healthcare provider. They can provide personalized medical advice and explain how to best manage your condition and reduce transmission risks.

Remember, you're not alone in dealing with this, and there are healthcare professionals who can provide the detailed guidance you need for your specific case.
