OK so this girl I had sex with has herpes now . but we did it 7-8 months ago. is it possible she had herpes when we had sex? she said that it was her first outbreak a week or two ago . and she thinks that I gave it to her when I was a virgin! so I don't know what to do. but I got 4 bumps on my pubic area I've had them for weeks , I got them after I shaved so I don't know if they are herpes or they are just pimples that won't go away. I don't wanna go to my parents and ask to take me to get tested unless I know I have it. I've looked at pics of herpes bumps and mine don't look like the ones I've seen pics of an my friend doesn't think they are( I showed him,no homoness) but I'm still concerned. to be honest don't think I do because I haven't seen any of the bumps or blisters that herpes causes and I haven't had any of the symptoms (except after wrestling practice , my back will hurt but I think that's cus I'm bent over so much)

i don't knowwww I'm really concerned
ive never seen the symptoms but before last week I dint know what to look for so idk. as far as I can remember I haven't seen any of em.
dosent it take a like within 20 days to get Ur first outbreak?
and don't you get an outbreak everylike 2-3 weeks?

Get checked. It could be nothing but you freaking out now that you know she has it, but it is always best to be safe. Herpes can stay dormant for a long time, not flaring up until you're stressed or something triggers it. So she could have had it before you two got together or gotten it while you were together. Also, it is transmittable when she doesn't have any signs or symptoms, so even if she didn't look to have them then, she could have.

A test will either put you at ease or tell you what you need to prepare for, as herpes is not a curable STD. There are medications to control it, but it doesn't ever go away, unless they've come up with something since I last had to do any research for this. But it isn't the end of your sex life, if you do have them. You just have to be extremely careful about safe sex and making sure you don't pass it on to anyone else.

I'm sorry you hve to worry about it, though!

Like everyone else says, go get it checked out. If you're in college, your college offers free STD screenings and treatment.

You can have herpes for months and never know about it. That's why safe sex is so important, someone can genuinely believe they are clean but actually not be. There's no regularity to herpes outbreaks, you might get a couple in quick succession and then nothing for months and months. If you honestly don't think you have herpes, then that's fine, but I think, since you're asking this question, you don't honestly think that, you're just hoping that. So do what you know you have to do and get yourself to a doctor to get tested. If you can catch it before you have an outbreak it's actually less painful to treat too.

You should get it check out just in case. There's nothing wrong with just getting it checked out. It's nothing to be ashamed of. but obviously you shouldn't have sex with that girl any more. Just to be safe. She doesn't seem to be the safe-sex type. Hope this helped.

get checked!
its not like your going to loose anything
the bumps could just be ingrown hairs, if you think this is the case, you can physically check on, by breaking open the top, but if there's no hair inside, then go to the clinic!
seriously, you don't want to mess around with somehting as important as your member, it is scary having to take your worries seriously, but in the end it will totally be worth the piece of mind.
and out breaks are commonly 2-3 weeks apart, but you can be symptomless for long periods of time, months.
go go go!

hi you most likely have bumbs from shaving but I would still get checked out due to the fact you don't have to have a breakout to have it. it sometime lies doormat in people and they are carriers the spread it but show no systems . if I was you I would talk to your dad he is a guy and would be less likely to get up set over the fact that you had sex. and next time use protection . sorry had to say it . hope this helps
