can irritation/tingling in vagina for a month be herpes?

Can irritation and slight burning for almost a month be symptoms of herpes. No sores, just some itching, no discharge or fever :/  the itchyness started four days after 5 second unprotected sex. It stopped for two weeks and cme back, no the burning sensation has lasted for over a mmonth,  if not, a month. Does this sound like herpes? Hiv? Std? Thank you :)

U can get some of the std tested by now... Like chlamydia, gonorrea  etc with in a week of unprotected sex...others u may have to wait.  But best of course, go to ur obgyn and have the doc look at ur area and cervix.... Sometimes herpes grows inside.  This is not to scare u but just rule things out for sure.  You can read my posts as I have seen numerous doc and still no relief yet... But I am grateful for neg on hsv2 thru WB.  God bless, S

Thank you, I really needed to hear that. I am tired of guessing, I want to know for sure. I still have a month ago before I can go get tested for actual results :)

And you should get all std tested at appropriate time since u had unprotected sex... Many studs can cause irritation and burning.  Or many non stds can cause it....go to see obgyn and stop playing guessing games.  Your body is telling u something and u have to listen to it.  God bless, S

You have asked this question multiple times now. It is most unlikely that this is a herpes infection causing these symptoms. Obtain the correct blood testing at 12 weeks to determine your status.
