Idk I keep driving myself crazy like every other month . So I’m in a realtionship for about 6 months and I had gotten tested for herpes like 3 times and all came back negative and had a yeast and bv couple months ago due to antboitics for chlamydia and bv. So this was August and I was freaking out before that maybe my boyfriend hasherpes and he didn’t mnow but he said he never had symptoms and I know it couldn’t have it because before him I wasn’t in a relationship for a year prior and I got tested July and herpes was negative for both hsv1/2 but he never has symptoms which I know herpes can be dominant and not show signs but anwyays fast toward so I guess ever since my yeast in the summer he never got tested for the yeast himself but I couldn’t think guys get it but my obgyn told him to get it so I took my things I wasn’t itchy and me and my boyfriend had unprotected sex couple weeks ago and a week later I experience itching like extreme itching so I decided to put this cream in and my anus mt dumbass seen that it says not use for genital area so den my anus I had the cut next day I Hurd when I wipe I wipe really rough and plus the cream I put which wasn’t for genital caused me to have cracked skin but nthe next day it  went away. So my vagina begin to itch like before and still and I guess I was itching so rough den I seen couple cuts like a small line not in my vagina but where the vagina opening but kinda more down so it was in a different place so den it went away a day later as well but you know I’m using the bathroom constant and no burning when I pee and cuts don’t hurt but I’m cashing them to irritate and not heal since I’m scratching it so it talk to my boyfriend yesterday and told him and he’s like yo babe last week too I notice these white stuff in my penis and very itchy too n sting so seen that those are all due to yeast for man and he’s kike I was embarrassed to tell you because these stuff never happen to me before , so then I’m like omg when I got clean from yeast he never got himself checked and gaved it back to me from doing unprotected sex after I finish taking my cream. But idk I keep getting paranoid that I have herpes idk I’m just scared to contract it even tho I got checked a month ago I want to go suck and checked cuz I feel like the cuts are from herpes but they went away jst my vagina is very very itchy and plus I have thick cottage cheese discharge  , it’s drving me crazy .. what you guys think it is ?

    This was very confusing to read but I think I got your point in the end. If you have cottage cheese discharge, and know you've had a yeast infection in the past then that's what it is, especially if your boyfriend had symptoms as well.

    You don't need to keep getting checked for HSV if you're with the same partner, unless you have reason to believe he isn't faithful. I think your fear of HSV is driving this, which I completely understand because I'm scared too. 

    Have you gone back to your doctor about the yeast infection? You're both best to go together and sort it out, or you'll keep reinfecting each other.

      Yes I have a lot of discharge that looks like cottage cheese and extreme itchiness and since I’ve irrated it I’m causing little cuts not in my vagina but where the opening is but a little more done. And I haven to gone to the doctor yet I am going Tuesday with my boyfriend and I will be getting tested again forheroes one last time .  But I’m jst kn fear of catching this virus and he never got checked for hsv bc the doctor doesn’t see the point of him too. But he never had symptoms which I know guys don’t show symptoms like that.  but I have a feeling it’s a yeast because we both describing yeast symptoms and it’s jsr because I had a yeast during the summer for treated for it with a herpes test and came back negative and yeast came back positive with a BV and I guess bc he never got treated for it when I treated it I had sex with him not knowing guys can catch yeast too. Till I started experience extreme itchy and he told me his symptoms which matched what yeast infection in man looks like. We are both getting checked and I also told him to get checked for hsv 2 with another doctor. He will do that and so will I . I’m jst scared cuts of the abrasion/cuts which I heard yeast infection causes that specially if you are itching and the area is moist it’s suppose to happen but I had used this cream on my genital which specially said not for genital use but I didn’t see it said that till after it says not good for thin layers of skin which includes genitals but den I seen that I have cuts where I applied the product like my anus but the cuts went away the next day mostly due to hardness with wiping and the product me using. But anyways yeah den after couple days I notice the cuts and abrasion near the opening but further down which doesn’t hurt doesn’t hurt when I pee jst stings a little but that’s when I keep itching and irrating and I am going to get tested for the 5th time . Im jst in fear of catching std since I catcher chlamydia from my ex.

      Found out it was a yeast infection. My culture came back positive for yeast. I told her to check me again for herpes 1/2 she and she refuses said I got tested a month ago for all std no point in getting tested again. Specially if the symptoms in feleing js jst jst itchness sne discharge and minor cuts due to yeast.  She said as long as it’s not s new partner that I slept with a month ago after my blood work den I should be fine and told me to stay off google cuz it’ll have you thinking negative but basically my boyfriend gaved the yeast back to me so I didn’t know guys can also get yeast from females but so I guess I’ll wait another couple months again to get tested for herpes 1/2 but she’s kinda right I got tested for herpes August , , July and I had one done in May and March so there’s no point. So I jsr wanted to let you know it was a yesst infection

      If you're sleeping with the same partner, there is no reason at all to keep getting checked for HSV. It's just a waste of their time and yours. Just sort out your yeast infection and relax smile

      You should talk to your doctor about that, they may recommend talking to someone to help you rationalise your thoughts smile

      Most deff! My friends think I’m crazy getting blood work done every 3 months and my boyfriend probably think I don’t trust him cuz he said he’s clean but I’m going to take my mind off those things and live my life
