So I got tested for herpes in like late Oct 2020 (have not had sex since) because my ex cheated and said he had herpes but was a-symptomatic but I got tested anyway and my results for swab and blood came back negative. But today my va-jj didn't look good. I noticed it was irritated after wearing tight clothing for a few hours. They are not sore, but some are red but have not crusted over or leaked any fluids. I haven't had sex since October like i said and have not experienced any outbreaks like this ever. I feel totally fine not sick no headaches no pain in general/peeing nothing except for a slight itch every other day. I have had yeast infections in the past (recent one in Jan 2021) but i don't know about this one this time. Of course I've done my google search which is like 50/50 helpful and plan to go to the doctor but I'm hoping...praying I don't have it. Any knowledge will be helpful before then. Thank you.

unfortunately due to the location of these sores it could be herpes. it is possible to test negative if you are tested too soon. if you can rule out friction from sex as you have abstained since october, its best to go back and have this looked at. if youve never had an outbreak, what did your doctor swab the first time??? there needs to be an active outbreak for them to swab so im not sure about the results you got

omggg but I never had a "outbreak" until now and the swab and blood came back negative so i thought i was good but i guess not 😦. . When they tested me the 1st time thought i didn’t have any symptoms or breakout so maybe that’s why. I went and got tested again a couple days ago so i should have results soon. Im just so mad especially at myself for letting this happen ugh

yes youre correct if theres no outbreak theres nothing really to test which is why many people do not know they have it even uf they have been exposed because the signs and symptoms come and go. it could be something else but i would say be prepared. if it is herpes, its not as bad as you think !

So I finally got the results and this is what they said. It was positive for yeast. It does show that you have been exposed to Herpes Type 1. This is the virus that generally causes cold sores around your mouth. Your Herpes Type 2 testing was negative.
