STD testing should be a regular occurrence for sexually active adults and teenagers. While STD testing may sound intimidating, it is actually a simple, easy, and affordable experience. Many free or affordable health clinics offer STD testing to patients who wish to remain informed of their sexual health and well-being. If an adult is mature enough to enter into sexual relationships, he or she should also be mature enough to remain informed of their sexual health, in order to protect themselves, and their partners.
What Types Of STD’s Should I Be Tested for?
STD testing varies for men and women. Women should be sure to be tested for HPV, which can be accomplished with a regular Pap Test. Certain types of HPV can cause Cervical cancer, which can be deadly, and will need to be treated while it is in the early stages. Women may also want to be tested for chlamydia and gonorrhea, and any other diseases at the discretion of their physician. Additionally, pregnant women should also be tested for syphilis, to ensure the safety of their unborn child. These tests can be done during a regular Pap test, which is both convenient and will save women from having to schedule an additional doctor’s visit.
Men should be regularly tested for chlamydia, gonorrhea, and HIV, along with any other diseases that their doctor deems appropriate. While women may get tested for STD’s during a regular Pap test, men will have to make a special doctor’s visit to get tested. This may seem like an inconvenience, but regular STD testing will help to protect a man’s health and the health of their partners.
Wouldn’t I Know If I Had An STD?
While some STDs, like herpes, have unpleasant symptoms, many others will have no symptoms at all or show no symptoms for a long period of time. For example, a woman may have HPV, and suffer no apparent symptoms, yet that HPV could be causing cervical cancer. While STD testing may seem like an unpleasant consequence of being sexually active, it is a necessary consequence that can save men and women from suffering future health problems.
