A member asked:
When u get tested for stud and came out negative does that mean you don't have herpes as well or is it a separate test ?

Depends: You need to ask what was tested. Sometimes your doctor only tests for some of the STDs. Herpes frequently isn't tested unless you are having symptoms. Each STD has a different test. Some are tested by drawing blood and some by getting cultures of the cervix. Best wishes!
