About the test

What this test measures

This test detects herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) and herpes simplex virus type 2 (HSV-2), which can cause cold sores and genital herpes.

Herpes Simplex Virus Type 1 (HSV-1)
HSV-1 is traditionally associated with cold sores around the mouth but can also cause genital herpes. Early detection is important, as the virus can be transmitted even when you don't have visible sores or other symptoms. Regular testing can alert you to an infection and potentially prevent unknowingly transmitting the virus to others.

Herpes Simplex Virus Type 2 (HSV-2)
HSV-2 is most often the cause of genital herpes, a sexually transmitted infection that can cause uncomfortable symptoms. You may be able to transmit the infection to others if you have an active infection, even if you have only mild symptoms or if you have no symptoms at all. Timely detection and management can help control symptoms and minimize the risk of transmission.

A positive result means you have an HSV infection detectable in your blood. Additional testing is needed to distinguish between infection by HSV-1 or HSV-2.

Who should take this test

This herpes test can help you stay proactive about your sexual health and is recommended for anyone concerned about possible infection.

Your chances of contracting a sexually transmitted infection may be higher if you are:

  • Having unprotected sex
  • Exposed to multiple partners, directly or indirectly

You may also want to consider a herpes test if you are experiencing common symptoms, which include:

  • Pain or itching
  • Small red bumps or tiny white blisters
  • Ulcers or scabs

You must be age 18 or older to take this test. Due to state restrictions, this test is not available to residents of New York.

Will my insurance cover the cost of the test?

Cue test kits are not currently covered by insurance, but we are actively working with health insurance companies to get coverage for Cue Health solutions. (Please note, Cue COVID-19 tests are covered by insurance. Check with your provider for details.) However, many Cue test kits are FSA/HSA eligible, which means that your health benefits may cover them. We recommend connecting with your insurance provider directly to inquire about their policies and your plan. We work hard to keep our pricing accessible, and in most cases, the price of a Cue test is comparable to the out-of-pocket costs for testing in a clinical setting.
