Recently I was with a new sexual partner and we didn't use a condom. I'm not feeling great about that decision, especially because I've had this burning sensation around my vagina since then. It's more actually around my panty line. There are no sores, rash or anything down there and the burning sensation is mild. I also just had my period, though I don't know if there's any correlation between those events. We had sex a week ago.
Is it possible I contracted genital herpes?
All advice appreciated.
since you had unprotected sex, you can follow up with proper testing at the proper times. you can test for chlamydia, gonorrhea and trich any time after 1 week post encounter. syphilis after 6 weeks. herpes, hiv and hepatitis after 3 months.
