  1. Hi, this is my first post and I'm super scared but figured I'd try anyways. So, I got diagnosed HSV2 this July and it was the shock of a lifetime. I had the impression my whole life that girls like me didn't get herpes, and all of my friends had been way more sexually active than I had been so what did I do wrong? Transitioning to now, I have/had been together with a guy when I got diagnosed and he was understanding which made me feel a teensie pit less alone in this world. I was prescribed 500mg valtrex and would take it pretty consistently for the first month than I realized that it made me have what I now know as prodrome symptoms. So, when I knew I was going to see him I would take the 500mg valtrex maybe one or two days before or the night of (my doctor said that this is one way I could use it and still reduce transmission?). Before and since I have disclosed, we do not use condoms. Two days ago and yesterday I began to feel prodrome (again, did not know what it was at the time) and took 500mg two days ago and 1000 mg yesterday because I knew I was seeing him. I avoided sex last night but woke up this morning and did not feel symptoms of prodrome. I took a 500mg 30 minutes before we had sex, but again it was unprotected. After sex I felt pain in my genitals and saw a small cut in my lower vulva (from sex, I am assuming). I apologize for being graphic but I am scared that I put him at risk and that I could have possibly spread HSV to him. I have been looking online for answers but wasn't sure how the valtrex, unprotected sex, and prodrome interacted. Please let me know any thoughts or suggestions on how to approach this. Sincerely, Super scared college girl :(
