Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I am a 20 year old female, and 3 days ago I had sex with a new guy. Yesterday I noticed I was itching around my vagina and clitoris, and earlier today I looked at the area and noticed a few white spots that were causing the itching/burning sensation. I am worried that I have genital herpes. Could I have contracted herpes that quickly or could it be due to irrational from sex or maybe a yeast infection? I am making an appointment tomorrow but I would just like some insight for I can’t stop worrying.
