So I slept with a guy I knew on the 31/07/2022 and then 2 weeks later had my first ever yeast infection. I was able to resolve it within 2 days due to the medication my doctor gave. I had the symptom of itchiness which triggered me to go check it out.

Fast forward to today, I took a picture of my vagina and noticed these lesions and a weird cut below my vaginal entrance. I am petrified that it is herpes. I'm always protected and get checked out often so I'll be so devastated if it is herpes. Especially since the guy told me he had a check recently when we slept with each other.

Im going to get it checked out but could someome please advise, I'm freaking out!!!

    STD test do not check for herpes unless you have symptoms so technically neither of you were checked for herpes. i would get it swabbed asap and get a blood test now and then another in 12-16 weeks

      I went for a test this morning, the raised bump is normal allegedly, but the clear cluster of cells is an over growth of BV and thrush.

      The cuts I saw are due to the scratching. They are very superficial and doesn't warrant concern, according to the doctor.

      I've had a bloods test mid Aug, and since it came back clear & I don't have any other signs, they won't proceed with another. I will be keeping an eager eye on it!

      Hopeful I fix my PH issue soon!
