Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Is STD Testing Advisable Before Starting A Relationship?
i lost my virignity to someone who has had partners in the past. We had unprotected sex twice and i went and got checked for STDs soon after and was clear. Does this mean my partner is clear? Should he get checked before we have sex again? He last checked a year ago and hasn t been with anyone except me since and says he s clear.
Hi there! Thank you for taking your time and writing us here. And to your query, I don't think there's a need to get yourself checked again and again. But if you're not satisfied and still want to get your partner checked, you can but it won't get any positive results if he's with you and you're sure that he wasn't with anyone else. Regards, Dr Gunjan
