Recently i went for blood test for herpes and results are out: i.e torch panel test by EIA.  Hsv 1+2, IgG is 1.6, & IgM is 0.2 what does it means am i infected? Plz help me?

An IgG level of 1.6 indicates a past infection with herpes simplex virus, while an IgM level of 0.2 suggests a low likelihood of a recent infection. This means that you have been exposed to the herpes virus in the past, but it does not necessarily indicate a current or active infection. It is important to consult with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and interpretation of these results.
