Vaginal cuts?

Post exposure to gh I had a yeast infection. During the period of constantly being itchy I was consistently rubbing my pad against my vaginal area. My baginal lips became dry and were cracked and by cracked I mean there were cuts on the inside part from where I was constantly rubbing. The doctor said she believes the cuts were related to that and not hsv but I'm still concerned

Brittany, I totally agree with your Dr.
Your seven week test was a great indicator as 70% or so would have shown positive by then. Any one time unprotected sexual event with a know status partner is 1 in a 1000 chamce of contracting hsv. If your sex was protected you can all but know you were not infected. Hsv is not super contagious. I again agree and would be very surprised if this was indeed hsv

The doctor said she's 95% positive that I didn't contract it and that if I do end up having it she will be very surprised but I'm still freaked out

Have you been tested for hsv? I am not sure if you're saying post exposure like you contracted hsv or you had relations with a known infected partner.
