im convinced i have it. i haven't got tested for it yet, but i just know it. I've done so much research on this site, while mine isnt the typical breakout, its only around the opening of vagina, it looks like rash, white ring. no blisters or sores. nothing on vulvar so far. im done for and i feel so so so stupid for letting this happen i could've avoided it.

Ok listen sweetie if it is, it's really not a huge deal. its so common. and yeah it can be hard to stomach but its nothing more than a skin disease. if you have been googling the life out of it then it is no wonder you are feeling this way. google will really hammer in hard about the stigma of it. do you have a picture to show?

And let me tell you, the only way to avoid it is to never ever have sex. Condoms don't even prevent it. Some people have it and don't even know they have it.

so it could be bacterial. if it is Herpes its a very mild case which is great. alot of people get terrible outbreaks but this is very minor if it is. thats not to say it is. so what you should do is make an appointment to see doctor and show them the pictures. herpes would be gone within a week or two. certainly wouldnt still be there 6 weeks later unless the sores left and then returned?

oh yeah i see the sore clearly now. Is it healed now? because if it is not there, there will be nothing for the clinician to take a swab of.

Take comfort in the fact they are mild. Some people have the worst outbreaks. You may find you have a few then don't have any for a long time. Take some lysine and CoQ10 and vitamin C meantime. What is making you think you are having outbreak other than the cut?

im seeing red areas that look like rashes around the opening on vagina... it doesnt hurt at all. honestly i wouldn't have noticed its if i didnt look. today i wake up and it feels like cuts thats why i think im having that outbreak

well i'm glad you didn't do anything. even if we suspect it to be herpes you're going to be fine. i promise. you are catastrophising right now bit 1 in 5 women are walking around with it and that number is on the lower end of the scale. for whatever reason us girls are easier infected than males. typical eh

its crazy because google will show you the worst of the worst and you'll think you dont have it just because it doesnt match what you see on there.
its crazy its infect girls more than men, do you know why ?

because there's a 10% transmit for a man to female and for females its 4% to transmit it to a man.
