I was diagnosed with hsv1 genital herpes and it always feels like I’ve got a uti or something now. Anyone with the same condition as me tell me if they experience the same thing x

What were the first symptoms that you experienced or noticed ??

@Qu33n_111 well my doctor noticed it before me. But after I found out I kept getting groin pains and pressure on my bladder. My doctor says that normal but I’ve had it for months

Have you been checked for UTI? It might be worth getting tested again even if you have. Best to know for sure because if you leave a UTI untreated it can spread to your kidneys and that won’t be pretty. If your doctor refuses then get a second opinion elsewhere x Take care, hope you feel better soon

@Yi_eune yeh not too long ago actually. Had antibiotics for it. Thank you!x

Did you finish all the antibiotics? It’s not uncommon for women to get uti’s especially if your immune system is compromised with hsv1

@A_li_xo have you been checked again after your antibiotics? Chances are that you never fully recovered.
