      there is a possibility because yeast infections can cause those ulcers to pop up aswell. what are your symptoms currently?

      these sores are the main problem as they are causing a LOT of itching, pain and discomfort. i get some lower back pain occassionally and sometimes the vulva region feels prickly. what can i do to make the sores vanish image

      i have never been tested for STDs before. ive been meaning to do it but it got pushed because of lockdown. my partner hasnt been tested either.

      I've had sores before in almost the same places. it vanished pretty soon on it's own though

      I am 99.9% sure what you are experiencing are herpes outbreaks. I would make it a top priority to go and get STD tested, and if you can, try to go when you have an open sore so the doctor can swab and culture it. If you do have herpes, they can put you on an anti viral medication that will prevent outbreaks, help to stop spreading, and if you do get an outbreak the medicine can be used to reduce the amount of time the outbreak lasts for. All of the symptoms you listed points to herpes, I hope you get relief soon!

      i fd my boyfriend the other day and had one string of a white looking blood clot along with a few brown ones and im freaking out. the first time i ever fr him the next day i had hard pimple like white spots show up in the creases between my thighs and vagina where i shave and have been seeing them on and off. No pain or itching and my boyfriend thinks theyre just razor bumps or something else rather than an std. Im scared though and havent been able to go to the clinic yet. Also recently whenever i get backshots its been feeling like his tip is getting stuck on something other than my gspot (never had this problem before) whenever hes pulling out to do another stroke. He actually couldnt feel anything up until a week or 2 ago the last time we had sex he said he could feel it getting stuck too. And a few months ago I was bleeding consista tly for about a month because i had been put on the bar and my vagina seemed to puff up or swollen and im just worried its something serious or that he cheated on me
