On 24th July 2023, I had visited a massage parlour for the first time and things got out of hand and ended up having sex with massage therapist without a condom, I did not ejaculate into her vagina/mouth.We had around 8-10 sexual acts.

We had oral and vaginal sex.

Immediately the next day I started seeing boils on my body and after reading online can say it is molluscum contagiosum.

I took the PEP for HIV within 31 hours and still continuing on it.

After a week I got her tested and her reports for HSV 1 & 2 IGG test came back positive.It is not definite whether it is HSV-1 or HSV-2.

HIV was negative.

Recently I got 2 paper cuts on my penis shaft after 19 days, I think it was itching there a night before.

I want to know if I have contracted HSV, only symptoms are tingling sensations (can be due to molluscum or PEP antivirals).
