Brief Answer:
Yes, only if she has STD

Detailed Answer:
HI.

This is by chance that,
if your to-be-wife has STD, you will get it if you do not use condom during sex.

It is possible only if she is infected.

If she has undergone all the tests about STD, and if she is negative you will not get it.

The chances of she getting infection is possible only if the person she had sex with had STD.

Hey,

Is it possible that some kind of STD doesn't show up for one and a half year? Or would there be visible symptoms till now? There are no symptoms and i am guessing any kind of std would show up in these year and half. So are the chances of her having STD if there have been no symptoms nil or would they still exist?
Also when she had sex once, it was the first time for both of them, so does this remove all chances of STD?

Thank you for your reply.

Brief Answer:
No chances of STD.

Detailed Answer:
HI.
I think you are asking a confusing questions.
Let us make this straight.

*Almost all STD show within a few days to few weeks.

*There would have been visible symptoms till now.

*IT is good that that there are no visible symptoms.

* Requesting you to not to guess. This is related to a lifelong decision , I suppose.

* The best part - If this was for the first time for both of them, YES, THIS DOES REMOVE ALL CHANCES OF STD...
