[Question #1499] Herpes

I took a herpes 1 igg test 3 years ago and it had a number around 7 positive . I just took another one last month and it said negative . Which one should I put more value in .
Also If i received oral sex with a condom on and somehow I was exposed . Would the herpes appear at the base of the penis .
What are the odds of having herpes inside your penis and not on the outside and how painful would it be and how long would it last

So one or the other is wrong. Dah! It is possible that there was an error along the way somewhere. I would strongly suggest that you redo the test and see what you get.
If you acquired herpes via oral sex, lesions would appear at the base of the penis of the oral sex extended beyond the condom. Have you ever in your life had a cold sore?
It is unlikely that you would acquire herpes in the urethra but not have lesions appear on the skin. If it did happen, urination would be painful for about a week.

I never had a cold sore but I assumed I had it from the positive herpes 1 test . Then after an oral incident. I repeated all the tests and it showed up negative . Now I'm worried about herpes. Would it be able to get in the penis with a condom on

Can taking monolaurin affect the test or herpes

Herpes transmission while using a condom is highly unlikely and no, monolaurin would not impact the test. Something is clearly wrong there with the testing - I do hope that you will test again to hopefully get some clarification there.
