I'm really concerned because about 60 days ago, I had a sexual encounter with protection. However, I just got my herpes antibody test results, and they're showing 3.5 for IgM antibodies and 30 for IgG antibodies. Is it possible that herpes could've been transmitted even with protective sex? I'm also wondering if there's any specific treatment I should be considering.
