Herpes? Yeast?

On 1/6/14 I received negative igg results for hsv-2

I had resumed sex with my partner On 1/7/2014.
I don’t know his status and he says he’s fine but that’s not something I can confirm.

About 11 days later I had weird symptoms develop!

I went to visit family and had been using summer’s eve feminine wipes a lot as we were out of regular toilet paper. I remember my vagina also being particularly damp that weekend and there was some white pasty discharge that was sticking to my vaginal entrance but do not recall an external itch. That night I went to bed and masturbated twice and felt lightly irritated. I went to sleep and woke up in the morning to take a shower and lathered on summers eve delicate skin wash and then felt some irritated skin that I may have further irritated by rubbing and lightly scratching in the shower. It was the jagged edge of the right flap. I have gotten irritations before in that exact spot.

When I got out of the shower and took a look I saw irritated papercut like scratches that were bleeding a little (2 little Knicks). The area continued to sting as I urinated and create tiny little specks of blood on toilet paper.

This started Sunday morning in the shower when I believe I rubbed or scratched myself. It also coincided with my period and I notice the texture and sensitivity of my skin changes down there during certain parts of my cycle either smoother or more grainy. All of monday it stayed irritated (kept touching it) and Tuesday was making improvements and by this morning it no longer hurts and new skin is developing and it’s pretty much gone. No swollen lympnodes or other symptoms.

Was this an outbreak of herpes from the 1/7/14 encounter after the negative blood test?

Do I need to retest?The cut healed in 3 days and today the 3rd day there's nothing left to swab

As mentioned really dont appear herpes related but testing at the 8 week mark would be a good indicator and 3 months conclusive

Hi, you kinda lost me with your post. You had the cuts a year ago and you have them again? Herpes sores dont bleed bottom line and all would appear connected to your period and discharge. If your concerned you contracted herpes a year ago then have another blood test to confirm this but what your describing doesnot really appear as a herpes out break from what you post.
