A member asked:
How long do you wait to get tested for stds. the last person i had sex with was 3 weeks ago and i had a test done today. is that okay?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
More Information: There are twelve common stds. They all have different rules regarding testing and when to test and what tests to do. It is hard to answer your question since this vital information is not in the question. But, HIV and syphilis and herpes and hepatitis a, b, and c are too early to be picked up on standard tests at three weeks.
