30.0" suggests that the concentration of igg antibodies to either hsv-1 or hsv-2 is above the defined threshold for a positive result. It doesn't necessarily indicate the severity of the infection or whether you currently have an active outbreak. It merely signifies that your body has encountered the virus in the past, and your immune system has developed antibodies against it.

If you had protected sex using a condom and your tridot antibody test at 56 days came back negative, it is a good sign. However, the general recommendation for hiv testing is to get tested at 90 days (3 months) after the potential exposure, as this is considered the window period during which the virus can be detected.
The tridot antibody test is sensitive and accurate, but there is still a small chance of a false negative result, especially if you were tested before the window period. Addit...more

Hello-
green discharge from the vagina is always abnormal and is typically a sign of an infection that requires medical attention. It can indicate a sexually transmitted infection (sti), a different kind of bacterial infection, pelvic inflammatory disease (pid), a forgotten tampon, or another concern.

Pep must be taken exactly as instructed and for 28 days. Do not skip a dose or fail to complete the full month as this makes it less likely to work. Do not double a dose if you miss one. If you do miss a dose and you remember in less than 24 hours, take the next one as soon as you remember.

I ate chaat by ordering it online. In that I ordered raj kachori. As it is delivered they bought it in a plastic box. The top portion of the box had green chutney and curd. The kachori was in the below portion of the box. I am worried because when I was eating I saw that the bottom of the kachori was reddish and wet on the inside part. So I lifted the kachori but outside is not wet. And as it was delivered the chutneys were given separately. So I am worried what if it was blood that was seen reddish at the bottom? Or is it tamarind chutney? I am not sure. Because as much as I have seen, they put tamarind chutney or other chutneys on top of other ingredients and not at the lowermost surface puri. So I am worried because the whole bottom only on the inside of the puri was reddish. If it was blood from hiv or hep, then can it cause that? I ate that chaat and also I have small mouth sores and also there was little bit blood coming from my gums when brushing. And I also had stomach ulcer little bit a week ago. So can it cause hiv or hep? I am really worried. Because the reddish fluid was there so much. I saw it only after eating most of it. Please reply soon. I am really worried.

As per cdc guidelines ,hiv doesn't transmit via food, water,and saliva in usual cases.
Very rare cases may occur in direct contact with blood of infected person with wound in oral mucosa.
Regarding your concern, I think you shouldn't be worried.
You have negligible chance of infection, if any possibility whatsoever.

1) remaining virgin means one did not have intercourse.

While genital herpes can cause symptoms such as redness and pain, it's also possible that other factors may be contributing to your current symptoms. For instance, urinary tract infections (utis) can cause similar symptoms, including pain during urination. Only a healthcare professional can determine the exact cause of your symptoms and recommend the appropriate treatment.
It's also worth noting that herpes outbreaks can occur even while undergoing acyclovir therapy. Acyclovir is an antivira...more
