Er? You absolutely can do an STI screen without symptoms. Some of the most common STIs don’t even usually have symptoms.

most of these diseases have dormant phases and active phases… like a cold sore….

LOL. I know that’s how it works because I’ve done it several times.

I don’t know how healthcare works where you live, but here you can. Its free, no questions asked. Get the results a couple of weeks later.

they don’t test for every single disease… it’s not where i live, it’s medical technology….
show me a screening test that tests for every single SDI or STFU….
repeating yourself is pointless. gimme proof or i do not care about the words you’re typing on here.
show me… any country, any price, show me your comprehensive, 100% accurate screening of every possible STI… or even something close to that… i’ll hold my breath.

Please do. The gene pool could use some bleach.

they responded with “it tests for 3 diseases “.
which is a lot different than screening for all of them.
you come across as someone that misrepresents and lies about the reality of risks in order to get their partner to agree to something they otherwise wouldn’t….
also, weak ass popsicle stick insult.

Chlamydia, syphilis, HIV, gonorrhoea. Sure you could have herpes and that isn’t tested for there but it has pretty obvious symptoms. Its generally a good enough test for the general population and if you need something more specific you can just list your symptoms.

lol… 4 is not a screen for **all STI’**s… and your dismissal of any other risk is insane.
if herpes was that simple to stop, then nobody would have herpes… and that’s just one of the many that aren’t tested for.
once you have symptoms, it’s usually too late.

Must be nice in that small section of western Europe. For the rest of us things are not so blissful.
