Posted: 03/11/07 - 13:10 Post subject: small blisters on my labia look like herpes, but I have no o |
|
|
| I am a 22 year old female and have been sexually active for several years. I have never had any STD, but now I'm really worried. I have been in a monogamous relationship with my boyfriend for the last couple of years, and suddenly out of nowhere, I have a small patch of blisters on my labia majora. This is the first time I have seen anything like this, but I have no other symptoms of a primary herpes outbreak, and the bumps don't really even hurt. I haven't had sex with anyone new in years, so I'm skeptical that this could actually be herpes. What is it? |

|
|
| Hi! im concerned that maybe my test results for herpes were incorrect...I recently had sex with a new guy im dating...i was well lubricated and during penetrations i got what i thought was a tear near the end of the entrance of my vagina..When it didnt go away with the week, i went to see my doctor because it was time for my annual...i mentioned to him what happened, he suggested that i get tested for herpes and all other STDs...i was in shock because i never had and STD before and i was always safe..well the tests came back negative and i was relieved but the so called"tear" is still there and now it has spread and looks more like a cluster of small-tiny blisters...i recently changed my laudry soap to something new so i was thinking maybe it was an allergic reaction, but now i worried that this could still be herpes..i dont have any other symptoms whatsoever, but the "blisters" are painful when i wipe..besides that everything else looks normal..im really worried and not sure of what to do... |

| The best thing to do in my experience is to get a blood test and repeat it again in 3- 6 months. |

|
|
Hi,
I went through a similar experience and had 3 different blood tests over a 1.5 year period, and all came back negative. My doctor explained that it doesn't necessarily mean its negative, rather that the bloodwork wasn't done at an appropriate time to detect the antibodies. The best way to find out for sure is to go see your doctor when you actually have an outbreak/blisters - they can tell based on the physical symptoms many times as well.
Good luck! |
