Protect yourself!!!: Before starting any sexual relationship, from an online connection or otherwise, insist that your potential partner have a full sexually transmitted infection panel done by their doctor. Also, insist that you be able to read a copy of the results, don't just take their word for it. If you don't understand the report, have your own doctor review it for you. Also, always use condoms! be safe!

I have had patients come in asking for tests to rule out sexually transmitted diseases to show to their future partner.
