STI

[blondinella]

Hi,

I had a "one night stand" (yikes) late at the end of August - the condom broke. Late September I had a full STI Screening and all came back negative. I was wondering if i can put that behind me or if i am at risk for anything

Hi Blondinella,

The best person to ask this question to is the healthcare provider who tested you because they can tell you what STIs you were tested for (not every place does a full screening unless asked). And, some STIs have to be in you system longer than others in order to create a positive test result, so your healthcare provider may also be able to tell you if you tested too soon for certain ones.

Thanks. I did a full screening literally. I also asked about HIV (as I know that takes more time to be in the system) but my healthcare provider had made told me the risk is too low to be concerned (especially if I dont know of his status). She had said chlyamydia (sorry spelling) is common, and important to catch early. It of course, came back negative. I guess if thats what she had said, I am in the clear..
Is there a way to delete accounts or posts on a side note?

Side note: I was tested for HIV and Hep B and it was negative because it was included in the cost of the test.

Okay, so, it sounds like they did a full screening and gave you an indication that you were in the clear. So, I would say that you can move on from worrying about this.
