Hey you guys thanks. I will go for a test to put my mind at ease

Hey hiking girl, is it possible to experience a primary infection this late? Or do people even realize that they have a primary infection

Hello, I am a woman that is very conscious of my health and body. Although I am overweight, I work out and eat healthy so I know when something is off with my body. After each sexual encounter, I go for testing. I am 25 and been with only 5 men and 2 were unprotected. With all the testing I had, I never thought to be tested for herpes. I always thought that if I did not get any bumps or seen any bumps upon examining the penis then there is no way the person is able to spread herpes. Oh, how wrong I was. From research, this virus is very common and can be spread without lesions or symptoms. I discussed this with my Dr and he said he does not see any reason for me to be positive for herpes. I know I may have herpes 1 and never experienced an outbreak bc it's common in my family. I am just unaware if I have HSV2. Being that I slept with 5 men, I know I came in contact with herpes. According to the CDC usually symptoms occur 2 to 20 days after sexual encounter that is infected. I never experienced any and it's been 3 months since my last unprotected encounter that Gabe me and his girlfriend Trich. Shortly after being cured from trich I developed a pain in my pelvic region above my vagina that went to my back. I knew these symptoms very well. The ER doctor confirmed my thoughts and diagnosed me with a UTI. I am now skeptical that maybe I was experiencing Herpes symptoms because most people complain about lower abdomen pain and lower back pain. I recently talked about this to the gf of my last sexual encounter and she told me she and him tested for everything but herpes . She explained she never experienced symptoms nor is he. I know that I can not rely on what others say. I decided to go get a test but most testing sites will not test me because I have no symptoms and they feel like I would have been shown signs. I read about the IGg blood test and will be going to labcorp to find out. My Dr still thinks it's unnecessary and costly given my sexual history. I still would like to know. Recently, I have been experiencing tingling and or this slight pain on my vagina lips. I have no sensation in my vagina nor around. Just in that one area. As of now, I am waiting to go to labcorp and also hanging tight to see if an outbreak would come along . Any advice on what should I do. Sorry for the long story
