FAQ
Common questions
Can I have an STD without symptoms?+
Yes. Many infections cause no symptoms, so testing also depends on exposure and screening guidance.
Is a urine test enough?+
Not always. It does not cover blood-borne infections and may miss throat or rectal infection.
Is an early negative result final?+
It may not be final inside a window period. Ask whether and when to repeat testing.
