Please help

Hi everyone maybe someone can help ? Every time i get my period i get ONE cut or something down there and this was the first time it burned when i peed. i use ultra tampons because of how heavy my bleeding is and sometimes it gets stuck on my skin so when i pull open my vag to get a better grip it pulls my skin. I only get it when im on my period towards the end of the month. and its always only just one, i dont know what else causes blisters besides herpes but i know theres other things i just I dont know what to do im only 21 i dont want my life to be completely over. i havent had sex in almost 2 months and before that it was with condom. only condition i know is herpes and im praying to God that it isnt. ! I have an appt Nov 11, but im just so scared:(

hi, i feel the same way you do with my sexual health it’s terrifying :frowning: but you’re young and you seem very causious about this stuff so try not to worry too much things will be okay. for me my anxiety makes me convince myself i have every possible problem and std but then i get tested and im 100% fine. Try to relax. DO NOT look up stuff online a lot of it is inaccurate and false and it will just make you worry more for no reason. now you only say that there’s one small cut. herpes is a big cluster of them more than one or two. likewize there are a few other things that can slightly look like herpes such as ingrown hairs and razor burn. your skin might be sensative as well cause there minor cuts. I know it can be difficult to not worry about it but from what you said it doesn’t sound like anything serious. but i am not a doctor and i cant see whats going on in person so youll just need to be patient and distract yourself until your app. All you need rn is a piece of mind and when you see the doctor you will get that. I hope everything stays okay
