Thanks for contacting with your health concern
1. as the history of unprotected sex with the man whose wife had herpes is present, thus a strong possibility of contracting the disease [genital herpes] is there.
PS. As genital herpes has no symptoms, so one can be infected and contagious without knowing it, so you may ask for:
-PCR blood test; which can tell you if you have genital herpes, even if you don't have symptoms.
- Cell culture: your health care examiner, will take a sample and look for
herpes simplex virus [HSV] under a microscope.
2. Although mostly [in 90% cases] the immune system of a person clears the HPV in two years but may remain dormant in the body and reappear again if there is weakened immunity of the patient [like the occurrence of
diabetes,
tuberculosis,
thyroid problem, recurrent cold]
PS. The HPV does not go away and may remain present in the cervical cells for years as such regular screening/follow up is recommended
3.
antiviral agents [like valcyclovir] can be used to treat [as a therapeutic strategy] or to prevent [prophylactic strategy] disease, but consult an infectious disease specialist before starting the medicine, since nowadays acyclovir-resistant strains are there so that he can decide the best antiviral drug for you.
4. For such types of infections, Rasayana drugs (Rejuvenation/ Immunomodulators) should be taken i.e. which corrects the dysfunction of tissues without disturbing the functions of normal tissues, also Rasayana drugs potentiate humoral
antibodies, by increasing serum
Immunoglobulins such as IgA,IgG and IgM.
