pain in testicles and penis and pelvis

I'm 23 yrs old, male, and had unprotected sex with a lady friend of mine. It has been about a year now. During sex, we didn't have any more condoms because it broke, so we used body wash soap for lubrication...For the year now, I have had pain, off-and-on, in my testicles and my penis; and just recently, in my pelvis area. Right above my penis. I tested negative for chlymidia and gonnorrhea and hiv.
The pain was more frequent after the incident and it started to go away slowly. It would come and go. I wouldn't have pain for a couple weeks, then a couple months, and now i just started to get it back after like 4 months...
I have no bumps or rashes or visible anything i can see...

Does this sound like herpes or anything to anyone?????????

Thank you in advance -

ob is outbreak

if you don't want to get tested them don't.  Otherwise honestly I have no other advice to offer you at this point.  Nothing else you can do at this point but get a test, see what your status is and go from there.

your symptoms don't sound like herpes going on. That said, that doesn't mean that you don't have herpes either orally or genitally and just don't know it. see what I'm trying to say - 2 separate issues.

if you had contracted genital herpes from oral sex, odds are you would've had a very classic ob and wouldn't be wondering, you'd know.

Hi, Grace -
I had one more question...If a girl gave me head, and she got tested for herpes after that, and it came back negative, wouldn't that mean I dont have herpes? Cause I would have passed it on to her during that time she gave me head..but she came back negative - is that correct?

just pain typically isn't std related. follow up on it with your provider as needed.

also google pelvic pain syndrome and take a glance at some of that info ( http://www.pelvicpainhelp.com/excerpts.html  is a good link on it ).

I know the statistics, but this doesn't sound like herpes symptoms. Thats all im saying...
I have been told it could be anxiety because I think about it all the time and i'm very worrysome. Who knows. In the near future I will get a herpes test, but other than that, what else could it be?
Thank You Grace

condoms only reduce the transmission of herpes by 30-40%. You still need to be getting periodic herpes testing to know your status. It's for your protection and your future partners.

1 out of every 3 people your age has hsv1 orally whether they know it or not. It's incredibly common. About 1 out of every 5 females your age have hsv2. Both are fairly common and you could have either and never know it which is why periodic igg blood testing for herpes is a good idea  in general.

No i haven't had any sex since then. I have received "head" from a girl and she doesn't have any herpes on her lips or anything...wouldn't she maybe get herpes (and maybe on her lips) from giving me head if i had it?

I heard herepes doesn't come and go though, like mine is...

Harry you may want to get tested just to know your own status.  You have given enough time between the possible exposure.  Have you had sex since you had it with your lady friend?  

If you are worried about it I would suggest getting tested.

this doesn't sound like a herpes issue either.

have you been tested for herpes at all during the past year if you are concerned about it?
