you will need additional testing to see if your hsv2 is a true positive or not. I am not able to help you much more than that since you were tested outside of the US which is why finding a support group near you to help is more helpful.

why would you not be able to marry and have kids now?

have you read the free herpes handbook yet that we recommend in our read before posting post? if not, be sure to give it a read :)

your hsv2 igg is a low positive and will need confirmed with further testing. since you tested 2 months after the last time you had sex, wait another 2 months and repeat your herpes igg blood testing and go from there.
