So my friend is scared because she gave oral to a guy about a month and a half ago and now his friend called her last night and told her that the guy she gave oral to had herpes and now she's really scared. Would the symptoms have shown already? She's like really freakin out and crying so plz answer seriously and honestly. Thanx for any advice in advance.

In most cases, the symptoms of herpes appear 2-20 days after infection. Go to this website (
http://www.cdc.gov/std/herpes/STDFact-he...
and review the info provided there. Also tell your friend to get tested just to be on the safe side. Hope this helps. Good Luck!!!!

chances are that she didnt catch herpes. I was with my B/F who has herpes and we knew it for 2 yrs before I caught it. We did oral sex atleast once a week. I now have it on my genitals. So unless she is showing symptoms, like a cold sore, chances are she didnt get it.

These two links could really help you...

yes, it is possiable. Bu you can encouage your friend by recommending some good Herpes community to her. The people will feel very alone and fear at the beginning. So stdpal.com is a good place for her i think. And she can ask the online STD Counselor for more tips
