vp? hpv warts? herpes? Idk what this is.

Posted , 3 users are following.

I got an std check not long ago and I was all good, after my test, me and my partner separated and eventually i recieved oral from a new person, not long after my partner and i got back together (mentioning this because i am unsure if he got with anyone / i asked and he said no however he might lie to prevent me from getting angry)... we had sex and it was pretty uncomfortable as i felt somewhat dry? i thought it had to do with the fact we smoked weed before hand but i think that might be good to mention, because the day after i noticed i had a white watery discharge that did smell different than usual (i also started bc pills less than 2 months ago) but it wasnt a foul or fishy scent.. the second day in, i was violently itchy especially around my vaginal opening, at one point my labia even swelled and throbbed, it was very uncomfortable.. after two and a half days of irritating symptoms, i spoke to a pharmacist and it was a suspected yeast infection, so I took the course of medication and within a few days the symptoms vanished completely.. however id say a week later i noticed two growths on my inner labia along with an odd texture. i stupidly tried to pull one of them off but it didnt really budge, it did bleed a little.. a few days later the rest of the growths appeared and I would like to know your opinions?.. the growths dont seem to be puss filled or filled with any liquid, it looks like my skin but i also cannot tell as they are still pretty small cos id say they are between 4-6 days old.. they lay somewhat flat until i move my labia i can see better they are growths, they do not itch and if they do its very rare and its mostly if i am touching them too much, the growths dont hurt or cause any discomfort either.. i am pretty alarmed as I did have a sexual partner between my ex and i breaking up and getting back together, even though it was just oral i know its possible to catch something especially herpes... I visited the doctor today she didnt seem to know what it was an ordered an sti check but it only covered the basics, i plan on going to a gyno for more answers. imageimage

    also forgot to mention the bumps have been there for a week as of today. im unsure if they would have erupted by now if it was herpes. i did research and it says on average, on days 3-5 the blisters form, and on days 5-7 the blisters burst, but im unsure how to track my symtoms as the first two showed up over a week ago and the rest showed up a week ago, they've been the same size for at least 3-5 days, so idk if that means they should have burst by now if it was herpes? but at the same time idk if that applies to first outbreak as the first is always the worst and the longest.

    i have done my own research on other possibilities and apparently vp can develop after an infection, it looks a bit like really early vp as they form in lines. ive also seen many people on here have a similar situation after a yeast infection, but it also looks like early penile hpv warts. n tbh i fear its herpes because a post i saw on this website, this lady found them on the same spot and when i went through her profile she has hsv2, so im unsure if they were separate or linked as i see her talk about herpes and then comment on similar labia formations that its not herpes... im unsure if she told others the formations werent herpes before she knew they she had them or after she knew and they genuinely arent herpes.. so im very anxious....

    side notes:

    • i will mention they are forming on the other side of my labia, this side is just the most developed

    • they also lay somewhat flat on my skin or appear as an odd texture, unless i bend my labia sideways you can see the growths more, or if i really violently stretch my labia.

    • the person who gave me oral claims to be clean (obviously we dont always know for sure how true that is or if they dont know what they have)

    • as far as i know, my partner is not experiencing any issues.

    • ive had sex with my partner, kissed him, and given oral, and while we were separated the person who gave me oral also kissed me; my point is i havent experienced any mouth issues? idk if thats also a point i should make but just in case - the more info the better

    It's definitely not herpes, and doesn't look like HPV either. Get tested to ease your mind, but I think you're fine.
