hey so I recently starting seeing changes in the appearance of my vagina six months after having started being sexually active with my first and only partner. I had yeast infections on and off and thats all i thought the were until i saw weird flesh like growths appearing. I went to a gynae and she told me it was hpv and prescribed Aldara. I had been using it these past two weeks until i had to discontinue because it would cause me to have discharge that burns and itches really bad. In an attempt to calm down the discharge my mom told me i should douche and it soothed it so i kept using vinegar on it and it burned like hell but I thought it helped then this white blister looking thing showed up and then more of them started to spread all over my vagina. i just got back from a doctor and he told me it looks like herpes

    I am a guy. I was diagnosed with HPV around Sept 2019. recently as February 2020, i started applying vinegar on the small warts though it was after it had been removed, the action was to prevent the warts from reoccurring but it got worse and gave me blisters that looked exactly like herpes blisters. My dermatologist told me they were herpes so recently i went for an IGg and IGm hsv 1 and 2 test to confirm. Still waiting for my result. I think your story looks exactly like mine.

    Pls what's Aldara? A tablet or what?

    girl...that 100% could be from the vinegar was to acidic breaking down your mucosa creating ulcer like lesions. relax tour IGg will probably be fine and if not youll still be just fine babe ❤ try and take it easy...no more vinegar
