Does this sound like herpes?

[Scarlettely]

Hello!

I'm quite scared as you can guess with me reaching out to a forum.
The last time I had sex, it was protected and back in February. No issues until now.
I started my period as usual, and on the last day removing my tampon, a few hours later a terrible itch started.
Its persisted the past two days and I got curious to take a look and see.
There are some really really tiny white bumps around my vaginal opening, and that's it. No where else. It doesnt look like the classic herpes blisters found online, closer to the herpes ulcers but even so, not exactly. There is no red ring around it, no pus or watery looking filling inside, just tiny white raised bumps. I'm wondering if its either herpes or staph, i'm terrified.
Currently out of state as well for the next few months visiting, and I have no idea how to even see a doctor.

Has anyone had a similar experience?
No other symptoms except for itching.

Thank you

Primary outbreaks usually occur 3-5 days after exposure and rarely out to twenty days. So your time frame for a primary is not an indication of a recent infection at all. Now could it be an older infection? Possibly but I doubt it. Protected sex is safe sex as far as protecting any skin that a condom covered penis would come into contact with. Like the vaginal opening. So the evidence is in your favor.
That being said if they develope into blisters or get worse. Usually a day or so. Then please go into a walk in clinic and have them swabbed and typw specific tested for hsv1 and 2.
Itching by itself usually is not a hsv symptom. You may want to be seen by a Dr anyway as it could be yeast or any number of things for a woman.
Hope this helos and please keep me posted.
