a full STI screen is for HIV, chlamydia, and gonorrhoea
blood test - for syphilis, HIV throat swab - for chlamydia and gonorrhoea anal swab - for chlamydia and gonorrhoea urine - for chlamydia and gonorrhoea
afaik they sometimes tack on general biochemistry (sodium, potassium, etc) to the blood test, as well as some other things like mycoplasma genitalium but these are not standard 3-monthly tests
afaik it’s very rare to test for HSV at all, for various reasons

And even when you ask about it, your doc will probably say that the test isn’t worth doing because of how common HSV is and how inaccurate the test is.
