Do I have herpes?
Female, 19. Had protected sex (unprotected oral sex). 3 days later had tonsillitis. Found little soft bumps in the opening of the vagina that bled when messed with. Labia gets super itchy at night.Also, found a itchy red patch on bottom. Most recently just got the stomach flu.
As catin.... said perform hsv1 and 2 after 4 months of exposure make sure you should do IGG test.
I cannot diagnose your HSV status - no one here can. Only a test can determine whether or not you have the virus. It's important that you have your symptoms looked at.
Can your symptoms be herpes? Yes. Can they also *not* be herpes? Yes. A lot of things mimic herpes symptoms, and herpes can look like other things.

You'll want to see your caregiver about your symptoms. It's probably too late to get a swab done, however you can still get a blood test. This may also come back negative for lack of antibodies, but if it does, you can repeat in 4 months, and if that comes back positive then this is a new infection.
