Most doctors don't consider HPV or HSV important enough to test for. The prevailing consensus among doctors is that these are not life threatening and can be treated symptomatically if contracted. This attitude persists despite the fact that modern HSV tests are highly accurate after 2 months and can distinguish between types 1 & 2.
