HELP!!IS THIS HERPES?!!???

Posted , 11 users are following.

i shaved my vagina than 4-6 hours later i had sex with a first time partner he was the first person i had sex with in 5 months. 1-2 days later i found bumps on my vagina they were not painful at all and they were not blisters just bumps, not thinking anything of it i popped them and some clear fluid came out after that most of them started to scab up and heal. a couple of them did not heal as quickly and became red "ulcer like" none of them really hurt at all its been 11 days since i noticed the bumps. only one of them is mildly itchy. it has spread to my bum but only on the outer skin. looks like red bumps or pimples somewhat itchy not painful at all. could i have herpes? i did an artificial intelligence skin identifier by sending in these pictures 60% of the time i got folliculits as a result the other 40% said herpes!!!! ITS KILLING ME! HELP! imageimageimageimage

    it does look like a herpes outbreak. cause of the ulcers. was the sex unprotected? did he give you oral?

      yes it was unprotected. i also gave him oral but he did not on me. i have not had any type of sores on my mouth though.

      well i suspect possible herpes. i see youre getting tested. request a blood test and swab test for more accuracy.

      doctor said folliculitis she doesnt think it is herpes and she also looked inside and said that there is no sores inside and that she is fairly sure it is just a irritation from shaving but she said that i should get it check if it happens again! im still very anxious idk if i should believe her?

      i think you have some folliculitis going on. but folliculitis doesnt ulcerate like that. i see some herpes looking sores in the first and second pictures

      i think thats because i picked at it ? and they dont hurt at all just mildly itchy but none of the others ones where itchy it is mostly all gone now except for the two that look the most like ulcers

      even if you picked at it, it wouldnt cause literal ulcers. like, the ones in the second to last picture look exactly like herpes. trust me i have severe diagnosed follicultis in my genital region from poor shaving technique. also, because i have really coily hair, i tend to get ingrowns more often so i know what all that looks like. what you have doesnt look like a follicle problem. plus the fact that you had unprotected sex recently causes me to further believe its herpes.

    i dont think this is herpes. looks like inflammed follicles from shaving

    probably scabbed and inflammed from being squeezed! exfoliate and try not to shave over them!

    if something like this comes up again then id get tested.

      what ever the outcome is. nothing has go change. a positive result doesnt define you ❤

    you need to get swabbed, nobody can tell just by looking. get swabbed and blood drawn asap.

      i feel like it it isnt herpes because herpes starts with super painful blisters and i didnt have any of that i didnt have any pain and it never hurt when i peed and they were never directly on my vagina just around it on the skin

      herpes doesnt always look the same each and every time with each and every person. sometimes they can start off with ulcers. sometimes theyre tears. sometimes theyre fluid filled blisters, sometimes theyre not. and you only get painful urination when there's a sore near your urethra which doesnt always happen to people with herpes. i think youre suffering from a genital herpes outbreak.

    • Edited

      herpes can look identical to razor burn, ingrown hairs, etc

      if you dont get them swabbed you will never know.

    you probably are suffering from both folliculitis and herpes. i dont think its just folliculitis. i also think i see herpes sores on your bum. unless you shaved there too and then it could be folliculitis. but i defnitely see what i think are herpes sores/ulcers
