About Herpes 1 (HSV-1) Test | Oral Herpes Testing in Williston
Herpes simplex virus type 1 is best known for causing oral herpes, though it can also infect the genital area.
HSV-1 spreads through direct contact with infected skin, saliva, or mucosal surfaces. Many people who carry the virus never develop noticeable symptoms, which is one reason transmission can occur without either person realizing an infection is present.
The HerpeSelect® test used here is a type-specific serology assay. It measures IgG antibodies that target HSV-1 specifically, allowing it to distinguish this virus from HSV-2 rather than reporting a single, combined herpes result.
Antibodies take time to develop after exposure, so testing too early can produce a negative result even when infection has occurred. A healthcare professional can help interpret the result alongside any symptoms and exposure history.
