New here: so, how long does it usually take to experience the first outbreak?

I had protected sex with someone who has gential (genital) herpes, but I just wanted to know if I would experience symptoms by now.

It has been about 2 weeks since I hooked up with her.

Thanks in advance.

if you are going to notice symptoms, they will occur within 2-20 days of being infected.

the risk of contracting herpes from a one time protected encounter is incredibly low.

Thanks, Grace.

One more question: What will the symptoms be? Anything very noticeable or common?

www.ashastd.org has terrific info on all std's, how they are transmitted and their symptoms for more reading :)
