Do I Need Further STD Testing Despite Negative HIV, VDRL, HBsAg, And HCV Results At 3 And 6 Months

I had sex with a prostitute 6 months and 26 days back. It was protected. But in excitement I licked her vagina once or twice without any protection. After three months I got some problem in my pennis. Paining after peeing. Doctor said it has infection and It went cleared in 7 days of medication.As per the doctor said after three months of exposure I have done test of VDRL,Hbsag,HCV and HIV rapid 1&2 .All were negative. Also after 6 months of exposure I have done the HIV test again and it became negative too. But still I am worrying and scared. I have ashamed and feeling guilty of the work i have done in my past. I have promised my self to not repeat that work again. My question is there still any chances of STD related diseases, or HIV for me in future ? Shall I need to do any further test for ghoneria,chlymadia, herpes, trichomonasis etc or shall i need to repeat the test i have done earlier like hepatitis, hiv, syphils or its conclusive for all of now ? Kindly help.

Hi,

All the tests of HIV, VDRL, HBsag and HCV, should have shown positive, 3 months after exposure, if infection was there. Therefore, you should consider yourself as negative for these infections. However, you may be tested for gonorrhea, chlamydia, herpes and trichomonas also, if not tested before.

If these tests are negative, then you need not any further testing regarding these infections. However, still for any other cause like pain during micturition, a culture of the urine may also give a clue for urine infection, if any.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
