I’m a 35 y.o. female who has been in a monogamous relationship for 12 years. 4 weeks ago, I had unprotected sex with a married man. I regretted it immediately, and have been under extreme duress and anxiety over the situation. I talked at length with the man I slept with about it, and he assured me that I had nothing to worry about. I can’t eat or sleep. I was menstruating during the encounter, and after 3 days I noticed irritation during urination and I eventually had some itching and some white, chucky discharge. On day 6 I went snowshoeing for an hour in deep snow and I noticed some groin discomfort that lasted 5 days. On day 8, I started having tingling/burning sensations all over my inner thighs and groin, but not on my genitals. I started an otc treatment for a yeast infection. I got tested at a clinic (day 10) for Chlamydia and Gonorrhea and the results were neg. My symptoms cleared up except for the tingling/ burning, but a week after I started the treatment (day 15), I experienced vulvar swelling and made an appt to see my doctor (day 17). I noticed a yellow/brown smelly discharge twice between the swelling and the appt. She did a visual exam and also took cervical swabs (I did’t tell her about my encounter). I tested neg for yeast and BV, and she thought that I was having a reaction to the otc treatment and she gave me a topical cream. All of my symptoms disappeared. I never had any lesions/blisters. I was checking a few times/day and never saw/felt anything. Today is exactly 4 weeks after the encounter, and I no longer notice any symptoms, but am still incredibly anxious. I will get tested for HSV as soon as possible. Was I having a primary herpes outbreak without sores or blisters? Is the tingling/burning I was experiencing due to herpes, or could it have been anxiety related? It seemed to subside when I forced myself to relax. I had protected sex with my boyfriend a few days ago. Should I be worried that I passed it on?
