How std can be diagnosed? what are the tests required? if a person is in doubt about std, then what to tell doctor?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Testing : The gold standard for diagnosing any std is either a blood test or cultures. Symptoms or lack of them can be deceiving so you really need to get checked. I would share all pertinent information with your doctor.
