Inform the people to who it's relevant that there's a risk and get tested.

If you've been tested 2 weeks after being with said person and you were negative then you have nothing to worry about

I really wish there was more education around sexual health cause someone of the topics that get posted on here really make me wonder

Don’t panic, these things happen. If someone who you’ve slept with has something and you think you’ve caught it/passed it on, let the people who may be affected know. If something has been spread then you can all get treated, if you’re all negative then getting checked does no harm. X

There are many std's, some with no symptoms at first. If there has been contact with someone who has tested positive for something.. Get checked out. And if cleared but still in doubt.. Ring them back and get a double check.

Sexual health professionals are the only ones to really consult. Personally, I'd give the fab forums a miss.

Stay with the pros.

Good luck!

How long since contact with the person? and it will depend on which sti, they all have different incubation periods.

.

Depends who is saying you are likely .

If its someone you had sex with that know they have an sti.

I personally would inform any other sexual partners i had after meeting them that someone had warned me i might have an sti and also get myself tested.

Then those others would have an informed choice to get themselves checked.Or wait until i got my results to see if mine came back clear.

just remember though most sti is a 2 week testing window most Hiv tests now 4 weeks but recommend 7 weeks and syphillis /Hepatitis is 12 weeks some only show a minor symptom that you might miss or not even show one at all.

But best Advice is go to your Sti clinic get tested .

Online kits such as SH-24 are good but the STI clinic can test for more than just Hiv /Gonorrhea/Chlamydia and syphilis that the testing kits do.

Some people spread all kinds of lies. Hope you can get another test soon to put your mind at rest.

If you talk to the clinic about what's going on they can give you a full panel or specifics for what you supposedly may be carrying.

If someone tells me there's a symptom or potential risk within my circle, I make sure to inform the people that need to know of what the potential risk is and get myself checked over thoroughly. Even if I don't have symptoms or honestly believe there to be much risk.

In February one of my partners had a potential symptom, but even though he knew it was likely tied to a separate medical issue and no other symptoms appeared in him or myself, I still informed the people I'd seen recently so that they could make an informed decision on their own sexual health, and abstained until I'd tested past the incubation period and got the all clear.

Meant my birthday in February sucked. And it was made infinitely worse by the fact I really didn't believe there was much actual risk. But at least I was responsible and didn't put myself or people I care about at unnecessary risk.

Well there’s no ‘likely positive’, you’re either positive or not.

If it was me I’d abstain from sex until I’ve reached the relevant length of time recommended for testing. If I’d had sex with anyone since the person who’s positive then I’d let them know and then I’d just wait it out until I know I’m not a risk to anyone before having sex again.

I don’t get why you’re being snippy?

I read it as you were asking what people would do? That’s what I would do.

What was the actual question, if not that?

Sorry I missed if you said it was herpes. No, I don’t think there’s a test for that. It’s really common, many people have it and don’t even know. I’d just brush up on the symptoms for herpes so you know them if they appear then go on with your life. You’ll not know if you’ve got it unless it appears, which it may never. P

You can test for herpes. It’s not standard and it’s not easily done in the NHS. Going private you can do for a bit over £100. There’s a blood test that shows if there is a presence of herpes virus but does not show when the infection occurred. This can test both herpes 1 &2, but as so many have herpes it’s not significant in showing it’s been transmitted through sex.

There is also a DNA herpes test as well as a home kit but for both you need to have active suspected symptoms (usually lesions).

Have you considered mentioning to the doctors/nurses that you have a partner who has tested positive for herpes and therefore you’d like screening beyond their standard done testing? Not saying you’ve stayed mute but mentioning it in case you’ve not thought this angle.

Not all STIs are tested for, so some people never know that they have caught something. If you suspect something, inform your partners and follow the directions of your clinic. Don't feel bad, it's an adult risk that we all take.

Look after yourself, including getting any emotional support etc that would do you good.

If you’ve had sex with someone who has said hard to diagnose, incurable std then you might have. Yes. But you likely won’t know unless you get symptoms or pay for a test.

Anyone active on the scene is almost guaranteed to have been exposed to someone who has herpes. It’s very common.
