Hi, 29 y/o fem with a worry. For nearly 2 months, I had what seemed to be a yeast infection which finally disappeared after two treatments of monistat, but then a burning sensation began. I visited my gyno fearing it may be vaginosis, but his tests said I was neg for that & yeast, however my wbc was a bit high so he sent out for a urine culture. He had taken a swab of my cervix, but didn’t send that out. He hasn’t called me back, so I assume it was neg.
He suggested allergies so I began eliminating synthetic undies & tight pants, wearing none at night & changed body wash. Felt better, but still not cured. It doesn't burn when I pee, nor during sex & seems to be more around my clit/urethra & the skin looks a bit red. It also gets worse w/humidity. I also in the last week have frequent urination, my bladder feels sore but is full. It’s been a month since I saw the gyno. Last week I also had a full check up with my GP (no STD test tho) & he found no WBC in my urine or any indication of inflammation or infection anywhere.
Anyway, this is my concern: Last July, I had hooked up with a friend, & though we had no sex there was heavy petting. At one point he masturbated, ejaculated, & then masturbated again. He had washed his hands in between, but I remember him saying he found a little semen on his penis the 2nd time around & how he didn't clean up as well as he thought. A few min after, he pulled my labia apart with his hands, but I shooed him away since he had made that comment. He didn’t finger me. I had also fondled his testicles & may have briefly rubbed my clit after. I’ve been having sex w/one person after that but it has always been protected, & I know this person's history & we have been monogamous since our relationship began.
Is it possible that I could have caught an STI from this interaction? & that I had no symptoms for a whole year & then suddenly a slew of them? TY!
