I have never been sexually active-- at least actual penetration. I met this guy and we were hanging out and drinking and he tried to make some advance on me and I was too intoxicated to stop him, although he didnt go all the way in. He didnt have protection. It has been maybe a week since then and now I have a little irritation, no itching or burning or any of that, it just feels like my clitoris area is a bit sore. I have attached a picture to show, PLEASE HELP ME. Could this be herpes? I recently got tested for HIV, syphyliis and many other stds all came back negative, but this was before our encounter. I wouldnt want to go through that again, but I will if I have to. I have been also using this pH wash and then the irritation and things started. Could this be a problem too?
Go an std specialist and get igG type specific HSV 1&2 anything above .90 is positive
why do you say that?
To rule it out
I am asking why you said that you are 90% sure its herpes?
No I never said it is get tested to rule it out I saw the pictures looks like maybe or not I message u
I have an irritated area and its from bv and a yeast infection. Could be that but it's usually accompanied with discharge. If it's smelly discharge it's usually bacterial if its odorless it could be yeast.
I was diagonosed with BV not to long ago, and had the normal discharge, but I went back to check up and the DR said that the count has went down tremendously. This weekend I used a pH feminine wash and then this happened today, at least the irritation and thats when I found it. Maybe it could be from the BV? Does yours look similar to mine?
".90 positive" means what exactly? Also, there is no other symptoms besides this and its irritation.
If your test results are above .90 then you have antibodies for either 1or 2
Okay, thanks. But does this look like it could be herpes? None of my partners have had herpes.
I definitely have the redness going on yes and inflammation. It's annoying. Ihave been dealing with this for 6 weeks and I have been on flucanazole, metronidazole, and some other antibiotic that I stopped taking because it was causing diahhrea.
Have you been diagnosed with any type of herpes?
Not yet but I am just 6 weeks today from questionable sex partner. I obviously didn't find him questionable at the time, he seemed like he took very good care of himself or so I thought. I did the IGM test but it came back negative but it's not the most reliable. I need to do the IGG. I only thought I had herpes because I read yeast and bacterial infections are often misdiagnosed and could actually be herpes. My doctors never suspected that until I brought it up. One doctor took a culture of me and said it looked like I had something caused by herpes but then never took it to the lab. I was on Valtrex for 5 days. It may have helped with the inflammation but I was on other medication for the yeast and bacterial so I really don't know what helped what. I m overly frustrated. I finally added a picture in a new post so you can see how I look as of now. It's a phone picture so It's not as clear as it could be. I actually think I am getting better already after taking the yeast medication this morning but the minute i am off the meds it all comes back. It's scary. Never again!
I saw them, but it does not look bad at all. I talked to the guy as well and he told me he was up to date with his tests and all, and he did not seem to have anything at the time too. I am also scared, frustrated, and I cant even focus on my final exams right now. I dont know what to do.
I cannot see anything suspicious, and from the brief activity you describe, I would say what happened was low risk, unless he had fresh lesions on the part of his penis that touched or slightly entered you. Usually, sex or lots of rubbing is required. Could be a reaction to your new wash or related to your prior BV. When did the incident with the guy occur?
Without the questionable test I can't say because all doctors told me I don't have it when I saw them I had to force a culture
Try not to stress just the redness alone is could be anything. Unless yuo start to see bumps or lesions, or a rash or cuts then start to worry but until then you might be ok. Stop using that wash and see if it goes away. If not I would go to doctor.
Yeah none of my partners seemed to not have it either seemed to so how me?
I am seeing the little bumps, can you look at the photo? I dont know what to think of it, if its abnormal or not.
