Not sure: Was she having an outbreak when you had sex with her? Do you have a rash or pain on your penis?That is why it is always good to wear a condom if you do not know the person you were having sex with. Good luck. See your dermatologist if you do have a skin outbreak. It is less common for a man to catch herpes from a woman than the reverse.
