i had sex about 4 days ago and just yesterday I started to feel this pain on my vagina not on the inside but on the side of my lip, I went to the Dr and she bluntly told me it's most likely herpes but she said she will call me once the results are ready, during sex 4 days ago it hurt me a little because it was a rough sex i checked myself down there and I came to see I have these wounds is the Dr right 😞 I'm extremely sad image

    im in the same boat right now and mine look the same. on my clitoral hood. did you get a swab test?? i have rough sex too and she said she thinks its herpes but i also have BV. Im hoping its just from that, and if you have a yeast infection or BV it could be from that but honestly its hard to look on the bright side after the doctor says they think its herpes ive been crying all day too. most we can do is just wait and see and trust life goes on. they gave me the meds alr when you get outbreaks it helps them get better faster and most ppl dont break out a lot. sorry thats long

      I hope you feel better soon! Sleep without undies if you can to help them dry out. Dermaplast spray was my best friend when the ulcers were at their worst. I had a horrific initial outbreak and this group was very helpful for me!

    I'm so sorry you're so stressed and upset and I understand why this is so scary and upsetting.

    I was diagnosed with HSV1 (but genital) in October and I thought the world was going to end. I still do feel that way sometimes, but this group has helped me.

    I personally think your picture is very much an outbreak. Once your results are in, ask your doctor about all treatment options. I was fortunate to have a very positive experience with my doctor.

    It will get better, I promise.
