&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;h3&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;For Mild CMV&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000;&quot;&gt;Healthy adults with mild symptoms usually recover without antiviral medication. Rest, hydration and symptom management are often sufficient.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h3&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;For Severe or High-Risk Cases&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000;&quot;&gt;Individuals with weakened immunity or complications may require:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000;&quot;&gt;Antiviral medications (e.g., valganciclovir or ganciclovir)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000;&quot;&gt;Regular monitoring&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000;&quot;&gt;Eye examinations if vision is affected&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000;&quot;&gt;Specialist follow-up&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000;&quot;&gt;Early detection reduces the risk of long-term issues.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h2&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;Preventing CMV&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000;&quot;&gt;Avoiding sharing drinks or utensils&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000;&quot;&gt;Using condoms during sexual activity&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1. Should I get CMV testing if I think I&amp;rsquo;ve been exposed?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;Yes. CMV often has no symptoms, so a &lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;PCR or IgM/IgG test&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt; is the best way to confirm if you have a recent or active infection.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;2. Can CMV spread through sexual contact?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;Yes. CMV can be transmitted through saliva and sexual fluids. Testing is recommended after unprotected sex.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;3. How long does a CMV PCR test take?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;Sampling is quick, and results are typically available &lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;within few days&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;, depending on the clinic schedule.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;4. Is CMV dangerous during pregnancy?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;Yes. CMV can affect the baby. Pregnant women with symptoms or exposure should get screened early.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;5. What is the most accurate test for CMV?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;The &lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;PCR DNA test&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt; is the most accurate for detecting active CMV. IgM/IgG tests show past vs. recent exposure.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;6. How is CMV treated in Malaysia?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;In Malaysia, most healthy people recover without medication. High-risk cases may require antiviral treatment and monitoring.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;7. Can I get CMV from sharing food or drinks?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;Yes. CMV can spread through saliva, utensils and shared drinks. Testing is recommended after known exposure.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;8. Do I need follow-up testing?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;You may need repeat testing if you are pregnant, immunocompromised, or have ongoing symptoms. Your doctor will advise.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;9. Can CMV be cured completely?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;CMV stays in the body for life, but &lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;active infection can be treated&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;, and symptoms can be managed with medical care.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;10.
