Hello
Tmi so please stop reading if you don't wish to read about sexual health
So I recently found out my boyfriend of 3 years Cheated on me 2 weeks ago, I didn't know Untill today
We have unprotected sex
Yesterday, I noticed this sore on my clitoris.
I feel so dirty, I have had pride in myself that I've only ever been with one man my whole life - I'm 25 and now I'm terrified
The only symptom is a small sore and it's extremely itchy
I feel so discussing
I will go to a doctor for a check but just looking for advise as to if anyone has had this before? What did it turn out to be? Is there a chance this isn't an std?
Please be kind I know it's yuck

It could be absolutely nothing but it could be herpes type 1 or type 2. Definitely go to your doctor ASAP as it needs to be swabbed.
It's not yuck. Anyone can get an STD. In Australia 1 out of every 8 people has genital herpes. You can have sex once and get it, or you might get lucky and not ever get it. some people never realise they have it because they are asymptomatic.
I had my first symptoms in March of this year, I'd not had sex in over 12 months! It's not a sign of being easy or dirty, just like a cold sore on your mouth isn't a sign of those things.
Yes your boyfriend is an ass! But if it is herpes this isn't going to ruin your life.
Its not yuk. Hes yuk. Go to the dr and get sorted out. And i hope you punch him in the balls before you kick his dirty ass out.
I have no idea what it could be but you are not disgusting. He is the one who cheated and if this is an STD passed this on to you. Do you happen to know if he used a condom? Don't feel dirty or ashamed, he should be the one who feels that way not you.
Sores? How so
I had a sore down there before and went to the doctor terrified and it ended up being a cyst. I actually get them all the time now especially if I don't wax. What does the sore look like? My cysts were painful and itchy but they were almost like raised pimples but bigger and red. Herpes is more of an open weeping sore. Google pictures of herpes to put your mind at ease it could very well be nothing.
Also though if it is something not curable like herpes you can get medication so you don't get breakouts pretty much ever. Also seeing as it seems like a very monogamous relationship person I don't see it affecting your future life. One of my very close friends contracted herpes at a young age and has the worst kind possible where no matter what medication she is on she has sores 3 out of 4 eeeks of the month and she's gone on to have 3 kids and be married twice. It's not the end of the world
Could be a pimple that has popped? I sometimes get a random pimple down there and the suckers bloody hurt and a little itchy once popped. Unfortunately the Dr is the only one that can tell you what it is.
Good luck
You can get pimples down there that have nothing to do with an sti. I've never had anything on my clit but other areas and it was nothing just pimples
