Hello,
Short answer: Yes, you could have
herpes.
Detailed answer: If your partner has herpes then it is very probable that he has transmitted it to you. Herpes virus is very contagious and since you have had unprotected sex then it is highly likely for you to have got it as well.
Transmission can occur, even the context of intact and healthy looking skin and genital mucosa, and absence of symptoms. Transmission can occur through any kind of contact with the infected person: anal, sexual, fingering,
oral sex.
You might be completely asymptomatic during your entire life or signs and symptoms could come and go from time to time, and this is different from one individual to another. However, please note that herpes virus is the most common virus among human populations. It has no cure, but some antivirals might help lessening symptoms.
There is no universal protection from it. Even condoms protect only in about one third of cases as it depends on how it is used (if hand is contaminated then the condom cannot stop the infection). The final suggestion: if you have got it, get used to it and life goes on.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Ervin Toçi
