Diagnosed Herpes After Increasing Of Little Cut In Clitoris. History Of Having Unprotected Sex. How Long After Exposure Can Hsv Be Detected ?
Hi, doctor
How long after an exposure does i test positive for hsv? I had my last sexual encounter on march 9.
I went to the doctor and was diagnosticed with herpes. I tested IGM Type 1 and 2 and IGG Type 1 and 2 and all of them came negative 4 months after the exposure.
Is there any other bacteria that could seem like herpes? Because I didnt started my sythoms with blisters, etc.. I starded with a little, little cut in my Clitoris that was increasing.
Thanks

Hi, Thanks for using HCM.
With the herpes you will have painful ulcer with enlarged lymphnodes at inguinal region. So tell us how they are if present. If none of these symptoms present and with negative blood test you are safe from herpes.
Usually after 2 days we can test for Ig M and by this time of 4 months after your symptom you should have IgG positive if present.
You have history of unprotected sex and little cut in clitoris. This may be due to any other infection like fungal / bacterial. Usually bacterial infection presents with inflammatory signs. Fungal will be very itchy. It will be better if you can upload the photos here and I will try to help you in complete management.
Always practice safe sex with single partner and use condoms always.
Hope I answered your question. Consult your doctor for further examination and management. Feel free to ask me if you have any further queries.
Wish you good health. Take care.
Regard
