STD testing after first time ?
Posted: 07-14-08 01:39am

i had intercourse with my boyfriend.
it was kind of surprise for me, it wasn't planned but he just went mad and couldn't wait.It was my first time,I even bleeded a lot but he didn't use a condom.
just to be sure I wanna have all the exams to see if I got a disesase. He syys he is clean and has always used condoms but anyway I wanna be sure.
what type of analysis should I do ?
So i go to a lab and what do I ask for ???

When did this happen? Are you not concerned about pregnancy? Go see your doctor and tell him/her you had unprotected sex and you would like to be tested for all STD's.

you should probably get plan B asap if it isn't more than 48 hours after you had sex...just to rule out the possibility of pregnancy..bc that is very likely if you aren't on birth control..if its already been 48 hours then i guess youll just have to wait and see and test.....

I'm not trying to be mean, just honest. Why was it unprotected, even if it wasn't planned there are so many kinds of contraceptives to keep unwanted pregnancies from happening. Go see a doctor or take a HPT if you miss a period. Even if you don't you still should get tested.

Although it gets less effective by the day, plan b can be used for up to 72 hours not just 48

Actually you can use plan b up to 120 hours (5 days), but of course the sooner you take it, the better.

Speak with your doctor or go to planned parenthood for tests concerning STDs.

Just ask for plan b and a full std screening. They'll know what to give you.

That's exactly what I was going to say. Get the FULL screeing for STD's. As far as I'm concerned, whatever they ask you want...just say yes. The more tests you get, the better you'll be. I'm in a committed relationship for 6 years, and I STILL get every freaking test offered!

PS: Always wear a condom! Your only real protection from most STD/STI's. And please, honey...have SOME sort of protection at all times. Don't rely on Plan B every time you have sex (not healthy).
