me and my boyfriend have been having s*x for awhile... we usually do it 3 times a day... and then one day i had red bumps on my v****a and it hurt when i peed. I think its from using to much soap because i stopped washing for a while and it didn't hurt anymore. could i have a yeast infection..? and my boyfriend got tested and he was clean.. anyone know what is wrong with me?

  1. It's possible that you may have genital herpes. Seek your doctor for more help.

    If you have yeast infection, then my advice is to NOT EAT SUGAR or at least anything with MUCH SUGAR in it like candy; it'll only worsen the infection and spread the irritation.

    Anyway, go see a doctor and make sure you're OK. You should also bring your boyfriend as well.


  2. Herpes won't go away if you have it.  It only goes away with medicine and it's one of the STD's that is not curable.  Herpes virus makes lot's of blisters and I guess they hurt and you would be in some serious pain by now if you had them.  You could be irritating your skin from highly perfumed soap? You should get yourself checked out since you have the symptoms and get yourself tested. Just for peace of mind

  3. The answer for your question is no.You don't have herpes as well as yeast.Herpes is viral infection transmitted by sexual contact(partner) and heals even without treatment in 10 to 14 days.Yeast is fungal infection may cause white discharge but not the pain.In your case it is the irritation is the main reason(soap,hot water dry s*x etc...)

  4. It could be irritation. From doing it so often. You could also have a yeast infection from doing it to often.

    Either way you should see a doctor. Both of you should go.  Go to planned parenthood. They know all about that.

    If it's an STD they can treat both of you. If both of you don't get treatment you can re-infect each other.

    If it's a yeast infection then you need treatment, finish your treatment before you have s*x again. If not you can get re-infected.
