Question: how long should you wait before having an std test?
Answer: If you've had or want to start having sex — vaginal, anal, or oral — with a new partner, without a condom, it's a good idea to get tested. Here's how long after exposure we can get a reliable test result: 2 weeks: gonorrhea and chlamydia (and a pregnancy test too!) 1 week to 3 months: syphilis.
