Please read: Question For People In The UK!

---

Could somebody tell me please if in the UK under the NHS can i get a full range of free STD tests? Or would i have to pay/ they not wanting to give them out if i dont have reason to believe that i may be infected.

Basicly i want to know for sure that i'm clean before i do anything like that with my girlfriend. Even though i haven't had sex before, alot of STD's can be acquire by the transfer of blood i.e. cutting your hand on a broken piece of glass or shaving with a razor you've shared with your mate before a night out.

Thanks for your help anyone

Only just noticed your post... you can get tested for free usually either at a family planning clinic (have a look online for the one nearest to you!) or at your doctors

Indeed, it's a freebe... also, just general information really... I've heard it recommended that every 10 years you should get the full workup... I've just had my 10 year exam, which included full STD tests, kidney and liver function and everything else that they could think of... so many tests... they took like 6 blood samples besides all the other tests!! (All clear I might add)Always good to make sure you're firing on all cylinders Hope you're okay after you've been to your doc's

Thanks peeps, especially MDDraco, much appreciated. Bloody hell, 6 samples, that must really make you feel dizzy lol. Thanks for the advice.Merry christmas

No worries :smile: it's what we're here for!!

Merry christmas to you too :smile:

Tests always sting a bit, but it's worth it for the big all clear :smile: hope you get the all clear too!
