last time I had sex (was also non-protected) was this summer.image

but I recently had some pimple on my genital and now it got worstimage

from what I read it look like herpes

it was also itching (now its not itching) before I got those pimple

and I am having odourless thick white discharge

I have no other symptoms beside that

I talk with the guy and he doesn't think he has herpes (but I know some people can have it and have no symptoms)

    did you shave recently ?very strong possibility its folliculitis -- i can see what looks like a hair emerging from one ?!?

    monitor to see if they ulcerate / ooze

      thank you for your reply!

      I shave around a week ago.

      I don't think it is folloculitis:

      Because I notice a few "pimple" which I thought were ingrown hair at first, so I did not worry about it.

      then I had sex with my new partner, and after 1-2 days, it started to be itchy and irritated/sensitive for him.

      meanwhile for me it really got worst (number of "pimple" increased)

      1.if it would be folloculitis , my partner would have had no reaction to it (I think)

      2.can herpes symtpoms develop months later?

      thank you

    Hi Coco, it might be Molluscum Contagiosum. Look into that. I had those 3 years ago. If it is MC, then treatment that worked for me was Apple Cider Vinegar. You can google on the process.

    thank you for the answers,

    i could only get a screening in 2 week due to covid...

    does it look like herpes or not at all?(it also started to be smelly a little bit and I still have those thick white discharge)

    like is there still a chance its herpes,

    if its not will they be able to tell me what it is after the screening?

    thank you
