Herpes?

I had sex twice with my partner about 4 months. The actions took place 3 weeks apart and the day after second time I got really bad itching. I did shave a few days before, so I also had razor bumps. Few days after the itching I started to have vaginal discharge and just  more itchiness. The discharge was white, thick, and cottage cheese looking. I suspect maybe yeast infection, so I went to my doctor. He said it was yeast infection but he also tested me for chlamydia and gonorrhea. Both came back negative for such, however I did learn I was pregnant. Weeks later I start to be concern about my razor bumps because two were still there and both had white pus liquid when I pop them. I was still experiencing itching and discharge even after taking meditation for yeast infection. 

2 months past and finally both bumps disappeared. None of them crust up or actually hurt just itchy. However a few weeks later another bump showed up in different spot and it was painless but itchy and I still had discharging going on. I also had additional tingle sensation in both of my buttox area and itching on my butt, outside of my vagina, and my pubic area. 

I've been seeing my OB Doctor for 2 months now and I have told her about the itching and discharge. She ran a list of  STDS test check ( not including herpes)and coming to find out I actually did have Chlamydia. I got  treat a month ago however I'm still dealing with itching and discharge. Just today I found another bump in around the same area as last bump. It's again not hurting but a little itchy. 

Note all of my bumps are occurring in the pubic area. Not near my vagina or vulva area. None of them were open sores until I pop them or cluster together. I don't have any burning just tingle sensation twice. Also my discharge have change to more of creamy milky kind of discharge with no smell anymore since being treated for the Chlamydia.  

I'm just really concern since I'm pregnant. I will be mentioning this to my Doctor on the next appointment, so I can get test and know for sure. Just would like a opinion about this until then.

I know ask this question before but I can no longer locate where the question is.

The bumps you describe are not herpes. Herpes blisters don't last for that long, Herpes lesions would be gone by about 2weeks and even faster for recurrent outbreaks.

Thanks for replying. But I'm concern because I haven't shave down there since I had sex 4 months ago. I just shave yesterday,so I could better look at the bump. This bumps are staying for a month and half to two months at a time. I was wondering also is mid thigh pain associate with herpes?  Twice I have gotten this dull pain (doesn't hurt too bad it feels like the pain you get when your foot fall asleep) in the front mid thigh on both legs at the same time. The first time it last for two days and the second time last for 30 minutes. No bump appear afterwards because a bump was already there.

Hi, none of what you mention suggests herpes but more a reaction from the yeast and shaving.

I would like to also state that my itching never stop even after the bumps went away. It's been constant for past 4 months. Not as bad when it first started out but I'm still scratching a lot down there.
