Rash on labia after sex (NSFW)
Posted , 9 users are following.
I just lost my virginity, and now I have a rash on my vulva. It's red and irritated and itchy all over, and the skin in peeling and very dry along my labia majora. I don't see any blisters, but there are a few bumps that possibly could just be ingrown hairs or were just there before. I'm super worried that I have herpes or something, and I had previously set up a yearly appointment with my gynecologist next week, but I'm still having anxiety over this. I think it could just be a yeast infection, but I'm not having and strange discharge, but then again I am currently on my period so I don't know if I can't tell because of that. We used a condom so maybe I was allergic to it? We also had unprotected oral both ways.

Have you recently used new soaps, laundry detergent, pads, perfumes, lotions lubricant or something else on this irritated area?

I did my laundry at my boyfriends house, he told me he uses oxiclean. I don't have any irritation anywhere else, though, and I don't have a history of allergies.

Did your partner had coarse hair after shaving on his pubic area or face?

He doesn't shave his genitals, but he did have stubble when he went down on me.

This could be the explanation - stubble caused irritation. It does not look something more serious for me. Next time before he goes down there just push him to shave his face smoothly.

Okay so, I saw a gynecologist the other day, and she told me it looked like contact dermatitis and not herpes. But now i there's bumps, and it looks like herpes to me and I'm freaking out

very looks like herpes to me. it's very painful and sometimes itchy, right? as i knew, herpes is extremely contagious when sores are visible. so, avoid touching or having sex while you're having these sores. and you need to use prosurx cream to treat the rash and prevent new outbreaks in the future.

looks like contact dermatitis to me. if it is they have an ointment that will clear it right up.

please dont freak out! Everything will be fine!
herpes is hard to diagnose visually and everyones experience is different!
if i were you id go get swabs done! maybe a full screen! could well be nothing but at least youll know!
how does it feel? is it itchy and painful?

hi did you find out what it was? i have the exact same thing and ive also been really panicking and thought that it was herpes. but ive had protected sex and unprotected oral both ways. i thought maybe that it could also just be a rash from a new pad that i used.
