Does anyone know what I have?!? - Herpes Message Board

Two years ago my boyfriend had to go to the doctor because he found bumps on his penis. The doctor told him that he had genital warts. A few months later I started getting bumps too. I have never had sex with anyone else but him, but mine are different from his. His comes in clusters and does not go away until treated. Only one or two show up on me and they go away in a few days without me doing anything to them. Does anyone think I might have herpes or what?

It's really hard to say. I was under the assumption that warts, while they may go away on their own, take quite a while to do so...not just a few days. The only way to know for sure what it is is next time one pops up, get in to your doctor asap...within 48 hours after the bumps pop up, to get it tested.
