Hi there!
First, I fully plan on seeing a doctor, I would just like some information first. I have a few small bumps on my labia. They are mildly itchy and two have a small amount of pus inside. This is the third time these bumps have appeared in the past 3 months (always within 2 days after my period). The first time it woild burn during urination. This time, however, there seem to be more bumps than usual (about 5). The visual symptoms seem to point to genital herpes but I have a few concerns.
1. I do not exhibit any other symptoms related to genital herpes including differentiation in discharge.
2. I have had the same sexual partner (faithfully on my end, and I am extremely confident that my partner has always been faithful as well) for a year and a half now and I have never had these issues before the last three months.
I know that symptoms (if there are any) may lie dormant, but usually not for over a year, right? If this is an outbreak why am I just now noticing/feeling? Are there any other ideas on what this may be?
Thank you!
A
