Thanks newtothis22 for your reply. We agreed on not to have sex for some time which gave me more time to think. I got them frozen at my doctor but unfortunately more kept on coming up after first freezing treatment. Until I tried what people talk about on the internet "apple cider vinegar". I wasn't optimistic but I was surprised how fast can apple cider vinegar get rid of the warts. Within 2-3 day max the warts completely removed and disappeared. I thought I would share this for all people with genital warts. Apply apple vinegar on wart using cotton wool tip for 25-20 mins on each wart. I do multiple at the same time. Once or twice a day (I did once and sometimes twice). Warts will become black in colour by next day just like when dr freeze them. On third day apply pressure on wart using the wool tip just like if you were trying to brush them off. They should be removed at this stage. If not keep applying vinegar for longer time. They will be removed without any scaring. And I also noticed using the vinegar prevented more warts from appearing. Do not leave vinegar on your genitals for long hours as this might cause burning to your skin. 20-30 mins worked for me.

Hi, I have recently been diagnosed with Genital warts. I'm not a sexualy active guy but over the year I slept with few girls and I just got the warts on my genital area. I have recently got back with my ex girlfriend which I care so much about. Over the last two weeks we have been super excited and happy. But unfortunately I just found out about the warts. I want to stop seeing her for good because the warts won't go any time soon and might take years. How can I stop seeing her so I don't transmit anything to her. What shall I say? Do I just stop talking to her or tell her I can't see you? That would hurt her so much specially it was so hard for us to speak again. I don't know what to say to her. Please any advice will be appreciated.

I have never ever in my life experienced any signs of Hsv 1 ever. Not even once But the test results says I have it.

I was on the exact same boat, I was having sex with no protection and one time she already was going through an outbreak and she was in pain and we were having unprotected sex She didn't tell me she's having the outbreak otherwise I would have waited but I noticed her being weird and when I asked she said its hurting her and she's having an outbreak. Look simple advice, do not say I see myself with her forever and keep having unprotected sex at outbreaks, because i said the same thing and we ended up breaking up after 3 months. Nobody can be really sure about the percentages and they are just estimates, but I was having sex with her for 3 months, got tested after 15.5 weeks fe first contact and 6 weeks after last contact and results were negative for HSV2 but positive for HSV1. Use condoms mate, use condoms and use condoms. Avoid outbreak because no matter how good your relationship seem to be, you never know, it happened to me. She didn't even show one tiny bit of care and she left like we never knew each other, when our relationship was not going great but seemed to be perfect. Be careful and it doesn't mean you contacted it already but there is a chance always. Ask her to use medication it will help a lot. Good luck

Hey Katidid, yes it is hvs 1. and to be honest I was ready for hvs 2 positive anyway so it's good news for me

I had similar pimple 2 years ago which was filled with cheesy yellow stuff and the doctor said its not herpes. I tested recently after 2 years and no genital herpes was detected. What I'm trying to say is that pimples in that area isn't something associated with STDs only. The genital area is a part of the body just like every other part. You might get pimples that hurt in your face or arms or back. Don't worry too much and if you are, get tested.

You do not have to panic so much because I had many sexual contacts with my ex who has H2 for over 2 years and I got tested negative today after 6 weeks from last contact and 15 weeks and a half from first contact. I know this results will be more accurate if done after longer period but given i have no symptoms in my genital is a good sign. When I said many sexual contacts I mean everything you could think off for 15 times at least .. so from my personal experience I found genital herpes isn't easy to spread like HSv1 and other diseases. I'm not a doctor or an expert by any mean by just guy who went through the experience I explained above. Do not panic too much it doesn't worth it. I tried not to panic and I understand it's too hard not too. But man many people got it. I tested positive for HSV1 which I will never ever know about if I didn't test my self for it since I had zero symptoms until now. Take it easy and wait for the results. Good luck

@Katidid @Sil88 sorry guys for the long update I have been working for the past couple of weeks and not able to make it to the dr appointment until today. So I did blood tests for both herpes 1 and 2 and the results I got are positive for H1 and negative for H2. Even though my ex had H2. I also asked the doctor if 15 weeks from initial contact and 6 weeks from last contact is enough for antibodies to be developed and detected and he said yes is enough but will test again in couple of months. Thanks a lot for helping me though it. About the pimple I have in my genital area he said its not herpes and will go away. I still have it for a month now. Thanks alot again

Well first unprotected encounter was on 13 August which makes 12 weeks to date. Followed that few more encounters but a week or two later she went to her doctor and got antiviral meds. From 13 August to 12 October we were happy together and we were engaging in few sexual contacts say twice a week or once a week sometimes. So last encounter was on 12 October which makes 4.5 weeks from now. I started noticing the pimple about a week and half from now if i remember exactly. So about 2.5 weeks from last encounter. It is still there. (So that's makes about 1.5 to two weeks since I fist had the pimple). It doesnt itch, or anything even when I touch it. I wouldn't even know it exists If I didn't look. It's on the side of the shaft Close to the root. I wouldn't assume it's herpes as well as there is no itchin pain or anything like that. But about two days ago I started feeling my throats being weird. They dont hurt or anything but they feel funny and heavy. Along with that I started feeling little nodes on the side of my mouth being swollen. They dont hurt but I can feel them with my fingers. And last night after my last exam I felt I was being sick and tired, like headache, throats being worse but this morning when I woke up I'm feeling so much better. Throats not funny as last night, no headache, nodes are still swollen but so much smaller. I'm really confused right now and the only thing that will confirm this is the tests results. I booked an appointment with my doctor next week for the results and will see. Do herpes pimples always hurt ? Because in my case it doesn't hurt or itch at all, and how long herpes pimples should last? Because from looking at my pimple I can guess it will go in one more week from now at least still same size but different color now (not as white as before getting closer colour to my skin). Also do herpes cause throats to be sore or just feeling funny. My throats never hurt me. But feeling funny and last night I felt they were close to hurt, this morning they are so much better and close to normal. So confusing. I will definately post my results next week for people who went through similar symptoms might find this symptoms/ results helpful. Thanks Katidid

Iny case I showed symptoms a month 20+ later, first 20 days I was totally fine

Do you remember anytime you were not okay and someone like your mom or a friend asked if you were okay? Do you always say the truth or sometimes you say you are okay when you are not? I'm not saying he is not okay, but when you first hear something strange, anything strange, we people usually don't say the truth, or don't show it straight away, we like to think about it first. So to him this might be a big or small thing but you can't judge quickly from the first reaction of him, like he called you again meaning hes okay with it. No-one can tell but himself. I was okay with it completely with my ex, but she didn't tell me and that was the biggest thing that ruined our relationship. The fact that you told him makes you a great women, and if I were him I wouldn't leave you for that. I broke up with my ex gf about a month ago, I never felt I could be with a selfish person like her, all I wanted from her is to be honest with me but she failed. I tried hard to be normal but I couldn't and our relationship turned into a big mess suddenly. Im not sure if I got it now because I didn't dont have the test results yet but I guess I do have it since I'm experiencing some symptoms. Be happy with yourself and if he doesn't accept it move on. Do make a big deal our of it. Because you are looking for a long relationship, not a month, so if he's not okay with it don't panic, it's a good thing actually. Means you just got rid of something you will have to deal with later on anyway. He might be okay with it, the best advice I can give you it to take it super slow, give him time.

So I managed to finish my last exam today. I don't know how I did it, but it's over finally. I'm having swollen throats seeming they are going to sore soon, slight headache and the pimple that I had started to look more like herpes pimple. But there is no pain or anything around it. I also can feel my lymph nodes on the side of my mouth being swallen. I guess I got the herpes already and now waiting for the test results I did today. Im sure they will be positive. But I don't care anymore. I'm one of the millions and I wanna welcome myself to join you guys :) thanks for helping me earlier when I first suspected having it, you made me get over it so quick so thanks a lot

In my opinion nobody can tell when to disclose better than yourself, but the best advice I can give you is that you have to definately tell him before any sexual contact you make with him, because look at this way, if you dont tell him and he contracted it, this might piss him off even if he likes you so much and won't to continue with you, so you disclosing now will break it now, not disclosing will break it later anyway. I'm saying this because it happened to me. I found it so selfish of my ex to sleep with me without telling me. I'm going through my first outbreak right now and its not a good feeling .. always be honest and relationships don't build on anything othet than honesty. Good luck

@Katidid I'm studying for my final exams for my last semester in my degree, it's nice receiving a reply from you specially when this issue keeps on distracting me. Yeah nearly 11 or 12 weeks passed without symptoms is good to know but what people on the internet say is that this might show no symptoms at all. When I asked her at the first time she said that she is using natural stuff, but but after the first sex, she went on antiviral, she got it twise from her doctor. I hope I'm free since if I got infected I would at least show one of the symptoms by now but I haven't felt anything abnormal since. Will update you about the test results in a couple of weeks time and about another test results after 4 months from now. Cheers Katidid

@optimist thanks a lot for your reply, I think I would go with your advice and wait for 16 weeks but I would test in the couple of weeks and test again after 3 months for an accurate results. I've no symptoms at all, apart from so tiny hard to see two pimples which disappeared the next day so I'm not worried about them, but this last tiny pimple has been nearly around the root for about 4 days now. So will see how long it lasts. Unfortunately I did have sex with her during outbreak she never told me she's having an outbreak until we finished. That day I had a condom on. I'm over it now I think it was my mistake to date someone like this but people can be very douchy sometimes like in my case. I can't imagine myself having unprotected sex during outbreak with someone without telling them. Oh well. I deserve it Cheers mate again
