Herpes concerns

Thanks for the recommendation. I honestly hate using condoms. I just wish this was curable and he wouldn't have more out breaks. This is really hard on me right now. I'm honestly worried to have sex, because there is the chance of us not being together and then I have it as well.

your welcome..ya unprotected sex bad idea!!😞

I believe they tested me for herpes because my doc wanted to make sure I want 100 good because I was having problems with my period. I haven't done anything with him since March 18 unprotected. His baby mamma came in to the picture right after that he had sex with her twice then on the 25th noticeed the sores. He finally found out this past Sunday he thinks she gave it to him. But the docs said he could have had it since the first time he had sex, and the stress with her coming around could have started the out break. I have another question. His ex got tested the same day he did she is supposely clean. But she said they gave her a shot to prevent herpes is there any such thing? And thanks for the advice on the condoms. But I've tried almost every single one out there and I have such bad reaction to it. So idk what I should do. I want kids with him one day I just wish we didn't have to worry about this.

Also he found out it was hsv2 .

Wow... She is not telling the truth. No shot exists to prevent herpes. The only vaccine that exists to prevent an STD is for HPV and only certain strains. I wouldn't believe her w out seeing test results.

Did he test positive by swab or blood? Hsv 1 or 2? How soon after he last slept w her, did he get tested?

How long have you been w him?

Whoops.. Just saw it was hsv 2.

I would go get tested if I were you anyway and ask did it, doctors don't test for this and if you google it, you'll see for yourself. Herpes wouldn't cause issues w your period, so I don't think it is safe to assume he tested you. Usually that would be testing for an STD that causes pelvic inflammatory disease, that could cause issues and he probably tested you for those ones, which are bacteria. Unless you see tests results yourself that has herpes in there, it is never safe to assume.

He had sex with her the 23rd and then noticed the bumbs the 25th but we went to the er on the 27th. The doc said that it's hard for it to be for her to have given it to him bc of how quick it all happened. He said he could have had it for years. And with the stress of her bs made it come sooner and the lack of sleep he had been getting for the past 2 weeks.

Around Monday I started having symptoms of yeast infection and I get them not often but there normal for me. I get then when using condoms. Is that something to be worried about?

I really despise these generalizations and usually incorrect ones I hear the doctors telling people, especially the ones outside the states. They seem very uneducated on herpes.

I had symptoms immediately. I was sore the day of sex and thought it was because it had been two yrs. The next day I was more sore when I went wee. By the night of day two, going on day 3 since contact, I developed a cluster of fissures inside the crease of my outside and inner labia and one big bump located lower. The gyno even said she's seen people have a breakout this quickly. GPs don't seem to know anything about herpes, let alone tey to learn about the latest on it, instead of old outdated information. Some still tell patients they're only contagious during obs!!! It's insane!

Sounds like it's her. There's been people in here, that felt symptoms even faster than I did. Like an extreme burning during sex and after. I jut felt sore and differently.. Hard to explain..

I believe it was her but she got checked and so has the other guy she had sex with before my bf and we saw there test results it came up negative. As each day goes on I keep panicing. What about the yeast infection part I posted before?

Do when you don't use any condoms as of the last 6 months, you don't get yeast infections?

I think you should go and request a herpes test. Better to know than not yo lnow, then things may not be so complicated for ypu two, if you test positive. Why do you feel concerned about it if you get them often?

Well, that's why I mentioned what I did about your test results.. You may be asymptomatic. Herpes can be mistake and present itself like a yeast infection. 85% of people w genital herpes don't know they have it, because they are asymptomatic or symptoms so mild, they are mistaken for yeast, jock itch, ingrown hairs, pimples, heat rash, razor burn. Not all symptoms are the horrid stuff you see on the internet. That is usually worst case if someone is symptomatic w the classic episode of sores.

If their tests came back negative, either you have it and don't know or he's slept w someone else.

Sex can irritate the skin, making herpes activate.. Hence possibly what you think are yeast infections, may possibly be herpes

Yes every time I've used them I get one. And bc I'm really stupid and googling and it's honestly freaking me out so much. I saw that you can mix the two things and confuse the two. But now reading it 10times slower, what I have is a yeast infection and the red marks I have are from scratching when I sleep and that's sadly is common for me. Lol sorry. And yeah we're gonna go and see if I'm good. If not guess there's no reason to then stress about having sex bc we both already have it. Thanks lol you actually have helped a lot.

My other post is being moderated. But I'm going to get checked we are gonna go. And find out. Thanks.

Not a problem. If you need anything else, just private message me. Don't stress yourself out worrying. Just prepare yourself for the worst and hope for the best, that's a ll you can really do. Keep me abreast on results. I will be crossing my fingers for you and hope it is a negative test. Keep your head up! :-)
