It is best if you go to the doctors. Have you had a chance to read on how herpes is caused usually. There are things that may come into play determining if it is herpes: when the last time you had sexual contact was ? Do you have protected sex ( but know that protection does not always prevent the spread of herpes), the history of your partner. If you go to a doctor to get it checked you will probably have a better idea. Remember, doctors must maintain confidenitality, so dont worry about others or family finding out, they cant by law. Good luck

I'm going to have to go with...it doesn't really sound like herpes. Could even be an allergic reaction to any number of things...a douch, soap, condom, spermacide, personal care wipe, vaginal cream or vaginal deodorant, your shampoo or conditioner, and especially your laundry detergent or fab. softener. Sometimes you can use these things for a while before they start to bother you. I used a certain great smelling laundry detergent for about 2 months before it affected me. Then it was a nightmare having to wash and rewash all my clothes until it was finally out of everything!!!!!
