    I agree with Katie. I was diagnosed 4 months ago. I take time out of my day to help people that were in the same situation as me since I know how hard it is. Please be more respectful there are alot of posts and we get tons of notifications which i usually respond to if I have an answer. Reply with the url to your previous post and I will try to respond. Just like Carla said tons of people are still looking for answers! I read through the whole forum when I first got symptoms to see if anyone else had what I had and got diagnosed with herpes.

      Sorry no disrespect was meant. I have read through lot's of post's here and can't seem to find similar. I dont know how to copy url. I am mainly asking about the chance I could have contracted this through protected sex and also could I have passed this on through frottage only? His underwear was off mine was on but his genital area very possibly touched mine and buttocks. No outbreak at the time. If this is herpes although im unsure as they have never been ulcers or fluid and they are scattered on both cheeks instead of one side. Would it have been shedding from this area if it was hsv2? Thanks

      Scattered and on both butt cheeks sounds like butt acne. It's possible to spread herpes by rubbing the skin against an unclothed area with an outbreak. Chances are slim that you got herpes from that. The transmission rates of HSV2 are very low with protected sex. If they dont appear as lesions or ulcers and are not painful or fluid filled then you mostly likely just have folliculitis on your buttcheeks from wearing tight clothing and sweating.

    I know some have said this does not sound like herpes but I just dont know what else it can be. In my thinking it has to be. Can I just ask if anyone has experienced this with their hsv2 breakouts? The small sores had started to heal but there was still lumps where they had been and the skin was scarred. Stupidly thinking all was ok I had sex again and the next day they become sore again and start to burn again! Again no blister like or fluid that I can notice. Does this happen with hsv2? And have I put this man at huge risk of herpes? Sorry again for all the questions..i just feel like my life is consumed by this right now. So fed up of worrying and wandering.

      yes you did put him at a risk of catching hsv2.. never have sex until the blisters/ulcer/cuts are completly healed. some peoples body take longer to heal .. thats honestly so selfish of you , you should have done more research and your homework on hsv2 now he 95% will get it specially if you didnt use protection ...better tell him what happen and tell him it would be best for him to get tested in a couple months .. best of luck

      95% that he will get it? Where did you pull that number out of? And no offence but before you accuse me of being selfish, I am very careful sexually. I had a negative igg test after the only unprotected sex I had this year. Tested negative 5 months later. I then have had protected sex twice after this. How is that being irresponsible or selfish? I took all precations each time except now. And because nothing i had was presenting as herpes lesions i put it down to pimples from shaving. I would never knowingly put someone at risk. But thanks for adding to that worry

      you literally just said that you have small sores from hsv2 and they started to heal but theres still a lump , thats not being careful if you KNEW the bump was still there you shouldn't have had sex period until the lesions were competly heal to the point your skin is completely normal. if you did your research that if you had an outbreak from hsv2 and you have sex with them without protection they will mostly 95% of the time get it even with condoms . the chances are low but its still a risk. but theres nothing you can do about it now. I AM not trying to make yoy more stress or feel horrible but i'm just saying you even said your self you made a stupid decision. but it will be best to let your partner know and advise he/she to get tested. go online and read CDC regarding herpes and you'll read a lot of things that you didn't know. for me i was clueless about std but i started to get more knowledge on the topic even though i don't have hsv1 or 2 my bf carries hsv1 cold sore virus and i make sure we are very careful i tell him the same thing not to kiss or touch me or do anything with an outbreak. idc if it sounds mean or what i'm protecting myself and him as well so we don't get in genitally. My point is if it is hsv2 and you were on an outbreak that didn't heal and you had sex, your partner is most likely will get it with condom or without , chances are low with condoms but not 100%. but best of luck it could have not been herpes lesion and i would have been wrong but tell your partner to get tested .

      best luck
