My mom was at my house and used the bathroom. I used it after her. I'm not sure if I used it immediately after her but assume that I did. To my knowledge, she does not have HSV-1 or HSV-2 (no outbreaks, but never tested because testing was not a thing in her generation). I am a female. I sat down and used the bathroom after her. I stood up and saw that there were what looked like droplets on the front of the seat towards the boom of the the "U" of toilet seat. I don't know if these were urine or vaginal secretions. I'm also not sure if they touched my genitals. Can I get genital HSV-1 or HSV-2 this way? I ask because the surface was moist/had droplets, the timing (which may have been almost immediately after), my uncertainty re whether or not my genitals (mucous membranes) made contact and also my mom's unknown status.
