imageI was with a guy for a year, 7 months ago I went and got checked for STDS. I came back positive for chlamydia. Me and him didnt last too much longer after that. Two weeks ago i got checked again and was cleared, but the doctor said i had a roaring yeast infection. I also had sex with an old friend 2 days prior to that. After i got checked i had unprotected sex with him again a couple weeks after. The sex was rough and my vagina was hurting felt torn. We had sex saturday so when monday came i was still feeling sore i checked and seen i had an ulcer. Over the next few days I got another one and there so painful. I was feeling sick like my whole body was sore, chills, head cold etc. I want to know does this look like yeast infection sores or herpes im so scared ?? im also leaking a lot of watery discharge it looks white while it comes out but when i wipe its yellow ?image

    Same! Okay, so a little under two months ago I bought this new sex shaving cream. A few days later my vagina was red and swollen, super itchy. Two weeks ago, I went to go stay at my boyfriends, and we like never use condoms. But i was about to ovulate, so i told him he had to. Im a sex fanatic, but this time i told him to stop because it hurt literally so bad. But we showered, i was fine. I didnt feel anything off. The next day or so, it was pain. It kept feeling like i should be swollen, but I wasnt. It was tender, i had to stop wearing underwear, i had all the symptoms of a yeast infection, minus the cottage cheese discharge. But even though I was going through so much pain, i shaved with an old razor. I wasnt even gentle, I know i cut myself multiple times. Next day i had two small bumps. Now i have four or five large white bumps. Doctor said it looks like herpes, but we're waiting on results. My boyfriend has diabetes, so he cant afford to get it. I have no pain anymore, no itching, nothing really. Yeast infection gone wrong, allergic reaction never taken care of, or herpes. Help!

      i didnt, im still too scared. Before i left the hospital, she did give me the meds just in case. You take really large pills for seven days. I did learn in that process though, that if you've ever had a cold sore, that's simplex 1, and if you've had a cold sore, its likely to have a breakout in your genitals once. Some do, some don't. So if your test is positive for simplex 1, then after that pretty much since everyone has had a cold sore, and its the same type, you're fine. However genital herpes is way different because you got it from someone, yk. Which to me is scarier.

      hsv 1 can be on your groin area as well but its commonly on your lips,fingers, etc. you can get that from people too (kissing, drinking after each other etc). I have hsv 2 but its been years since i had a outbreak and my doctor keeps saying my thing is an outbreak but i think its a yeast infection despite the sores because the herpes medicine is making it worse and making my nodes swell up so im trying to see if others had similar symptoms as me thats not herpes. So far i keep seeing its yeast infection or BV lesions. your pic kinda looks like mines so it would mean alot if you tell your results not only to help people like me who are trying to find out more about what we may have but also for closure. Trust me I cried my eyes out and everything and a month later forgot I even had it. Had so many boyfriends that accepted it but never got it (Thank God). But im going to get tested tomorrow and if i get my results back for yeast or not I will let you know. Prayfully its just a bad yeast infection.

      its herpes guys, ive just been too scared to open the results, but i know. i even had another blister show up. im itching, im red, its just a lot. the doctor gave me herpes meds before she swabbed me just in case, and it worked. so, its herpes.

      Hey hun, so four months later, I actually opened the results today. That day i got tested, i had lesions and everything. She did a culture test, so she swabbed my discharge and my sores, then she did a blood test too. I opened them today and i was negative for HSV1 and 2. I'm so happy and so relieved, its been such an eye opener. I hope you're okay too!

    Hi im currently in the same situation. Every other month when my period came on I would get a sore in my inner labia. I assumed it was a rash from the pad so after my period was over I went to the DR the second week of february and they did a swab and it came back negative for herpes but they said come back in 60 days for a blood test. Now all the DR is only doing telemed because of the Corona virus and planned parenthood won't see me and it feels like it came back worse! PICTURE INCLUDED Has anyone ever seen this? image
