I have only been with one man-my fiance-but before me he said he has been with over 200+ women…i did not know that until i was diagnosed with low risk and high risk HPV and HSV. I have not had an outbreak, but now we are trying to conceive, but since i have been diagnosed, my cervical mucus around ovulation is not stretchy anymore, it looks different…If you have these viruses can you still become pregnant, or is it much harder to conceive? We have been trying for 6 months now.

Neither HPV nor HSV will affect your fertility.  Being infected with these viruses will not make it more difficult for conception to occur. Most couples conceive within 1 year of trying.

Several factors can affect fertility. Your age, weight, health status and regularity of menstrual cycles are all considerations when trying to conceive. Some studies show that smoking decreases motility of the egg through the fallopian tube, and may decrease fertility.  Male infertility can be due to problems with sperm count or motility.

If you have not become pregnant after 1 year of trying, follow up with an ob/gyn doctor.
