Update - my 13 year old daughter continues to deny sexual contact and is very adamant.  Today, she believes the ulcerations are returning.  She just started her period and has been using tampons.  Now questioning tampon allergy?  I have made an appointment with a new NP.  What is your recommending testing at this time to the open ulcerations to confirm or hopefully deny that she has HSV?  Any other testing recommended?

This was my questions several days ago--and is now closed

I am a nurse who worked at the STD clinic years ago, so I am somewhat familiar with STD's.  My 13 year old, honor roll, sports playing daughter, who does not have a boyfriend told me while I was out of town on business that she had developed vaginal ulcers on 1/13/17.  She did not want her sister or Grandmother who was caring for her to take her to the MD so she suffered (very painful, could not urinate) until 1/20/17 when she saw the NP at a local OB/GYN office.  The NP thought based on clinic exam, she had Herpes.  Started her on Acylovir 5x per day- she only took for 1 day as (mistake number 1)  because we initially we were told tests negative due to cultures (so she stopped taking it) and later told us positive due to blood tests.  Today, 12 days later ulcers are nearly healed.

Test results

HSV Type 1 AB IGG , S <0.91

HSV Type 2 AB IGG, S <0.91

HSV vaginal cultures for HSV1 and HSV2 negative

HSV AB IgM 3.19

(side note gonorrhoeae and chlamydia neg)

Thank you for the info.

We have stopped talking about the entire issue for the most part- and honestly I do believe her.  The last time she looked at me like I was stupid and said "I am not worried because if this comes from having sex, that isn't it!" So we dropped for the most part until today when it has resurfaced.

I will share this information with the provider tomorrow at the 8 a.m. appointment.  Thanks again.
