What are the chances of contracting herpes from someone that is infected after having protected sex?
I had sex with a woman that I think is infected. I don’t know if she had an outbreak or not–at least nothing too noticible. We used a condom but I hear that doesn’t help much against herpes.

You need to make yourself more aware of what herpes is, and how it manifests. Attached is the link for the herpes definition in Wikipedia. They get quite specific on what to look for.

Well its good that you did use protection.
You can contract herpes from sexual fluids… if they didnt get onto you then you should be ok. There are alot of people in relationships that have herpes. But I would take a test… and take a test in 6 months to recheck.. and if it worries you that much dont see her sexually anymore… or go with her to her doc so he can explain the risks if you want to pursue a relationship.
