About the Test
Sexually transmitted diseases (STDs) are common infections that spread from person to person during sexual activity and skin-to-skin contact. People with STDs may not have any signs or symptoms and this can lead to serious complications. If you’re sexually active and have unprotected sex, it’s important to screen for STDs so you can stay informed about your sexual health. Testing is the only way to know for sure whether you have a sexually transmitted infection. This panel individually screens for chlamydia, gonorrhea, syphilis, HIV-1, and HIV-2.

How it works
FAQs
It is not always possible to know if you have an STD because many people do not have symptoms. Testing is the only way to know for sure if you have a sexually transmitted infection. Some of the most common symptoms include:
- Burning with urination
- Increased urinary frequency
- Itching or irritation of the vagina or penis
- Discharge from the vagina or penis
- Lower abdominal pain
- Pain during sexual intercourse
- Unusual vaginal bleeding
- Pain in the scrotum or penis
Disease progression can be slowed with treatment. Remember that you can still pass it to another person even while you are being treated. You should not have sex again until your treatment has been completed.
It is possible to pass an STD to your unborn child. The baby could develop health problems and may even be born early. If you are pregnant, it is important to get tested for STDs as soon as possible and contact your OBGYN if you test positive for an STD for next steps.
The best way to protect yourself is to practice safe sex and to limit the number of sexual partners that you have. Regular testing can help you detect STDs early.
Anyone who is sexually active should get tested at least once a year. If you have new or multiple partners, consider getting tested more frequently.
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) makes the following STD annual screening recommendations, even in the absence of symptoms:
Chlamydia and Gonorrhea
- Sexually active teenage girls and women (< 25 years old)
- Sexually active women (≥ 25 years old) who have sex with more than 1 partner and do not use condoms
- Sexually active gay, bisexual, and other men who have sex with men (MSM)
- Men and women who are infected with HIV
Syphilis
- Pregnant women
- Sexually active gay, bisexual, and other men who have sex with men (MSM)
- Men and women who are infected with HIV
HIV-1 and HIV-2
- Sexually active men and women (including teenagers)
- Pregnant women
- Men who have sex with men (MSM)
