Well any kind of unprotected penetration can leave you at risk for stds. Even if you didnt go all the way in or you didnt cum. To ease your mind I would get tested.

Have you had any symptoms? Has she been tested recently? What does she say about this? Have either of you ever been tested?

well, i've not noticed anything particularly significant regarding to symptoms but this was very recent so i don't know whether i'd get symptoms so soon...or would i?

We've not spoken about it so i don't know if she's been tested recently.
I myself have never been for a test.

Who should i get in contact with?
I read that if you go through the NHS, they'll test me for free and confidentially so it won't show up on any medical records whereas if i went to my GP, it WOULD go down on my records.

How would i then be able to go directly to the NHS, i've so rarely had to go to the hospital so i get a bit nervous about these things.

thanks a lot,

Men usually get symptoms way later women and sometimes (depending on the std) they could get syptoms weeks after exposure and the symptoms are so mild that they may not even notice. But with us women it usually comes up in a week or two.

I would talk to you GF and tell her your fears. maybe you both can get tested. Since you have never been tested it would be a good time to start. If you arent in a committed relationship I recommend getting tested at least once a year or any time you had unprotected sex.

She being a women probablt has had a pap-smear so she could have already gotten tested. The best thing to do is talk to her. If you will continue having sex together its only right to include her.

What does NHS stand for? Also are you a minor?

Why are you afraid for it to go on your record?

I think planned parenthood is confidential and does STD testing. But im not sure if its only for minors. I dont think it is. but they have locations all over the country. Look them up on the web.

thanks very much rosie, you've been really helpful.

thanks again,
