Transmission

Hi,

My question is can someone experience a first outbreak only on the inside of the vagina?  Three years ago I had sex, and for a few days it hurt on the inside of my vagina...Was this a first outbreak...but only on the inside?

A year after this I was obsessed and inspected myself everyday.  I found a cut the size of pin.  It went away in less than two days...Does this sound like an outbreak, or could it have been irritation?

The third incident came a year and 10 months after I found the pin size cut.  I had a yeast infection for over a month (white discharge, itchiness).  After a month of suffering I went to inspect and stretched the skin.  When I did this about five tiny cuts the size of a pin formed.  They went away over night.

Does this sound like herpes?
Can someone have a first outbreak only on the inside of the vagina?

thanks

You can have ob's anywhere in the entire anogenital area.

You were seen when you had symptoms and your provider didn't feel that they were due to herpes. If you don't trust that opinion, more than enough time has passed for a type specific herpes igg blood test to see what your status is.

cuts that heal in a day or less, most likely aren't due to herpes anyways. Of course it's not normal to tear that easily so continue following up on it with your obgyn.

Showed doc cuts and felt it wasn't necessary.  Can outbreaks occur only inside?
