Genital herpes??
Posted , 5 users are following.
I had protected intercourse him on top while he was having an outbreak twice . I only saw the sores afterwards. Small group of Blisters on his shaft and a 2 bumps near the head of the penis. I had just shaven down there. From what I could see because after I got a good look he said I’m not a doctor to be honest I’m not sure if it was herpes. But he had a condom in during the act. My question is would I be safe from transmission since it was protected? 4 days later I had to visit urgent care had a mild fever flu like illness body aches sore throat. The doctor said sore throat was due to all the lymph node enlargement. About 6 days after that I was out in the sun at bbq when I got home I realized I had a lump on my bikini line painful to touch eventually it popped yellow pus and blood and is mostly healed. Burning urination no other bumps I see and mild pelvic cramping. Does the timeline fit? I’m very sensitive to symptoms in my body I’m not sure if the time line matches when would one first get a break out etc. thank you!

I would agree with Kasey and Ashley. Using a condom only reduces the Herpes transmission rate by 30% so its best to avoid sex altogether during an outbreak. I have genital HSV2 which I caught despite using condoms.
Having said all that the lump on your bikini line doesn't sound like Herpes, so fingers crossed.
Herpes is highly contagious but only during the first 2-3 days of an outbreak. After that although the blisters are still visible for a week or so there's usually no virus around. So you may get away with out getting infected in these circumstances.
Your bf needs educating

Be prepared to the worst scinario which is herpes positive.
It is unacceptable to have sex during outbreak. The risk of transmission is still present if there is no outbreak and with condom. Hope you are lucky enough and your results will be negative.
