r/stdtesting

What are the chances of an std ?

I slept with a guy
And he went in raw for a few minutes later we got condoms
I gave head too
My throat and genitals are visibly fine
0 itching or soreness and no weird odour either
The guy is not in contact with me but says that he has only ever slept with virgins
What should i do ? I mean i cant easily get tests done cause im still a dependent teenager and i dont think i have any stds or even infections cause i mean what the guy said was true ngl
But still idk i would never want to
Pass it onto anyone else

Testing at 3 weeks

I tested for HIV 1/2 & P 24 COMBO TEST at the 3rd week (23 days) and came back negative, I had protected sex.

Should I be worried about it or this is trustable. I will test again at 6 weeks

Is this a red flag?

So I have been having sex with this guy for about 3 years. We had unprotected sex one time in 2023 (I have already gotten tested since then and everything is negative) and after that we have been using condoms. I just got tested a couple days ago and I have my results. I have asked him if he gets tested and every time I ask him if the been tested he said oh it was 2-3 months ago. Yet this is the same person who said he used to have unprotected sex with random girls at clubs in his early 20s (we’re in our late 20s now.) And every time I ask him to show his results he gives an excuse saying he does not want to sign up for MyChart and that he does not have his after visit summary. He does not want to go to planned parenthood and get same-day testing either. He is completely avoiding it. He did tell me he doesn’t want to give out his personal information. I don’t feel okay having sex with him anymore.

STI or just irritation?

Friday (5/15) I had received oral sex from a new partner and while it only lasted a little while there was plenty of saliva involved. Since then I’ve been having a slight irritation in my urethra —— mostly emphasized whenever I urinate. I’ve been deeply paranoid but also realistic about the possibility that I could have Chlamydia or Gonorrhea but am also aware that it could be bacterial irritation and not an STI. I know I should get tested but I just want some other opinions.

The pain is about a 2 out of 10 (EXTREMELY mild albeit noticeable) and I am very paranoid about my health in general so just looking to outsource opinions from outside of my own brain lol.

I'm male, and I gave oral to another guy without condom. It's been 7 days, and I woke up with a red painless spot, in the inside of my mouth. Pretty sure I also have a light fever. In your opinion, what std is it? It's Saturday, and I'll go test Monday with my doctor

Uti or std?

Trow away account

So I (F) had unprotected sex with a new partner (M) on Monday 11.5 and on Wednesday 13.5. I know little about his dating history but I heard of at least 3 partners

Around Thursday evening/ Friday morning I started to get pain while peeing and an urge to urinate. Not super bad but still noticeable. I also feel mildly pain in my vulva. No discharge though.

The symptoms got better over the last days but are still noticeable. At first I thought it was an UTI also because I haven’t gone to the toilet right after sex but I’m not sure now.

Would you recommend making an doctors appointment or how should I proceed here. I never had any experience with this.
Thank you

I just found out I have an STD, what are the chances of a false positive?

I mentally just been trying to process this. I know it's not a bad thing and there is moments most people go through this. truthfully honest I have no clue where I could have gotten it, I have a few ideas. First being my ex, and the second being my job as a CNA and frequently coming into contact with bodily fluids and genitals all day. I know as medical typically STDs are transfered through direct contact with genital to genital so I highly doubts it's from my job. but I don't really know what to do. I have been with my new current partner for about 9 months and he is going to get tested, surprisingly he seemed pretty unbothered by it and said he wasn't upset and knew stuff happens. Anyway I guess I'm just confused. I haven't been with my ex in over a year, my ex claims I was his first. Weird part is I have no symptoms. Like non.... even my doctor said she very much is leaning towards a false positive baised on how everything looked during my procedure. The only reason I found out is I got a pap smear and she suggested to do an std test since I am sexually active with my partner and it's pretty standard to do them once you are sexual active. Do I go back in a get retested? What are the chances of a false positive? Do I just take the medicine and move on in life? Do I have to reach out to my ex to tell him?

Not sure if i should celebrate yet or not.

So i 32M hooked up with someone on valentines day, and believed i was exposed to hsv2. I waited six weeks. Did not have sex. And got tested, it came back positive but with low numbers so they ran it thru and hsv2 igg inhibition test, i believe. I was told it was a more in depth test in which it came back negative. Waited 3-4 more weeks tested again, and it came back negative AGAIN! But heres the thing, thru out these past 10 weeks, but testicles have gotten periodically sore, and my volume of ejaculate has lessened. Ive read on google this could be a symptom of hsv2 but my doctor said she had never heard of that. However this was just a walk in urgent care place. Im going to get tested again in some more weeks, but likely is it that i have tested negative for true hsv2 twice and still might have it.? Is it possible to be exposed, experience minor symptoms but not fully carry enough of the virus to be considered to have hsv2?

Which test should I get?

I (44/m) am thinking of doing a standard STD test a few times a year just to keep an updated record. What panel option does everyone prefer? I have done a 5 panel test in the past, but I am now seeing 8 and 14 are now options. What does everyone normally go for?

where can i get tested for stds in seattle

Hey guys, I’m looking for some advice from people in the Seattle area. I've been meaning to get tested for STDs and finally decided I should stop procrastinating and just do it. I just got out of a relationship and started dating again a few months ago. Nothing dramatic happened but there were a couple situations where protection wasn’t used the whole time and now I feel like getting tested would give me peace of mind instead of sitting around stressing over every little symptom or overthinking things.

The problem is I don’t really know where to begin. I've never had to seek testing for myself before and when I search online, there are so many options, it's a little overwhelming. I'm mostly looking for somewhere in Seattle that is reliable, discreet and non judgemental. Hopefully somewhere that will do a full panel test and explain things clearly, because I'm pretty anxious about the whole process. Also, if possible I want results fast.

I do have insurance but would love suggestions for places that are affordable since I’m not sure what my plan actually covers. I would also look at community clinics, urgent care places, Planned Parenthood, or anywhere people have had a good personal experience. Bonus points if the staff are nice and make it less awkward for first timers.

If anyone has any recos for clinics or testing centers or even advice on what the process is like in Seattle I’d really appreciate it. Feel free to comment or DM if that's easier. Thanks in advance

Just need some clarity

My bf of 7 years has never been tested for STDs but I have before we got together and since we've been together, always being negative. Surely if he had something, it would have shown up through me as I have been getting tested?

Need help understanding my results

Hi, I recently went to the doctor for a full panel, and I found out that my syphilis result was reactive and my RPR Titer was 1:1. And I’m unsure what that means.

I will be speaking to my doctor next week. But I’m having a bit of anxiety of what that all means.

How high is the risk?

How high are the chances of me catching hiv? I am a 34yr female I used to be very promiscuous back in my days, ive been celibate for 2 months now .. I was molested as a child and I was diagnosed with bipolar depression.. a lot of men used to use me, I was very sexually active.., I’ve got tested for hiv 7 years ago and I’m going to get tested again in two months, I wanna make sure the test is accurate.. I’m just tryna make sure I am mentally ready for the results, until then I will remain celibate (I know I am grown and I’ve caused this) please don’t judge. Im scared shitless to have sex with anyone. I’m very ashamed of my past and it’s haunting me til this day, I would get blacked out drunk and participate in risky behavior. I only had anal sex twice and that was years ago. I’m not really educated on hiv and I’ve been on google for weeks now smh . How easy is it to catch HIV vaginally? My anxiety is really bad like I’m shaking and everything thinking I could possibly have it. I’m starting to feel physically sick just the thought of having it. I know many of you thinking why didn’t i stay getting tested for HIV knowing I was promiscuous. I was young and dumb I would take many of std test but not test for hiv . Didn’t think it was a big deal until I got a little older, I thought it was more risky to get it for gay males (I’m dumb I know) please do not judge me . As of lately I’ve did a 360, I no longer drink or partake in sexual activities. I wanna change my life around. All I can do is cry. I don’t even trust men anymore, I’m so scared.. I wanna be a great mother to my kids, all I could do is cry and pray..
