Question 1

do std symptoms show a day or two after you had sex?

Accepted Answer

It's possible: We have a long list of sexually transmitted diseases with different lengths of prodromal periods. Most of them will show the symptoms in about 7 days or longer but some could show the symptoms in as early as 1-2 days too. If you have any abnormal discharge or discomfort see a doctor.

Question 2

can std symptoms show one or two days after unprotected vaginal straight sex? how soon can the symptoms be observed?

Accepted Answer

STD symptoms: Exposure to infectious agents with sexual activity is usually apparent with most STD's within a week or so. Chlamydia and gonorrhea can be detected sooner by vaginal culture. HIV and syphilis require blood testing, and the immune antibody response may take weeks to be positive.  Herpes I and II are usually apparent within a week with symptoms. See your gyn provider for testing.

Question 3

are there stds that would be late-onset and not show symptoms for 4 or more years?

Accepted Answer

Yes: HPV is one of the more common STD's and the non-wart producing strains can arrive and stay in the recipient for years with no noticeable symptoms. In the pre-vaccine era as many as 70% of women in their 20's showed blood evidence of prior infection. Some strains are related to cervical cancer.

Question 4

can how many years an std develop.when it shows no symptoms.?

Accepted Answer

: Which one ? I know of at least a dozen diseases that can be transmitted through sex. Some may never trigger symptoms in a male during the period when they can pass it to others.

Question 5

can how many years an std develop.when it shows no symptoms.?

Accepted Answer

: This depends on the STD. Some HPV strains may never show symptoms in a male or female until she develops cervical cancer decades later &amp; dies. For others many show symptoms in most in a week. Be specific about what disease you are ask in about &amp; we can be more specific with an answer.

Question 6

can how many years an std develop.when it shows no symptoms.?

Accepted Answer

: Most STD's have symptoms (pain, discharge, etc.) with the exception of syphilis , which starts with an easily detected visual lesion, but is usually without pain, which appears in the genial area.  If ignored or missed, syphilis will still be present and detectable by lab testing, but may take years to affect the nervous system (tertiary form).

Question 7

are there stds other than hpv that would be late-onset and not show symptoms for 4 or more years?

Accepted Answer

In a male,: herpes, GC,chlamydia,trichomonas could all show late onset and not show symptoms. In a femalle,not as likely. I would think chlamydia and trichomonas might be late onset.

Question 8

negative hiv testing at 5 months after sex and also other std tests negative. can i believe the tests? or do i need more tests? ive read hiv can take years to show up on a test? is that true?

Accepted Answer

: The best tests are the ones that draw blood because they are the most reliable if done one month after possible exposure. Other tests are not as reliable and can give false positives or negatives.

Question 9

could i have an std? i had oral sex (cunnilingus) with a girl i didn't know too well 2 years ago. i've never had any symptoms. could i have hiv

Accepted Answer

Need for evaluation: It is very unlikely that you have hiv. The more likely stds you could have picked up are herpes and hpv. Next time you see your doctor discuss the need for evaluation.

Question 10

hi,
im male 32. the last time i had sex was about 2 years ago. i had sex two times in my life. both was with girls and both were protected with condoms.

im about to get into a new relationship. wanted to know if i should get std test or not ?

Accepted Answer

Peace "piece"of mind: If you have been sexually active in the past and the STD status of the two  women is unknown., obtaining STD testing on your behalf will provide answers and peace of mind. Ethically, it is always a good idea to have a general discussion with a new sexual partner of any untoward sexual issues PRIOR to engaging sexually. A negative STD test in that discussion is a "bonus" to a new female partner.
