Do you still get STD tested now that you are married?

Boo Getting Reported!

Guest
I'm 20 and have been with my husband since I was 14. We were both virgins when we meet and I have never been STD tested nor has he. We've never experienced any problems or had reasons to, but I was just wondering if this is still something that people do while married. Is this something I should consider doing at my annual exam? Just more curios on the subject if married couples still get tested or any information/thoughts about it would be fantastic!
Jackie chan- My husband is deployed and has virtually no contact with woman so no concerns there. As far as I go, my husband has more faith in me than that-I would never cheat on him. So me asking this question wouldn't bother him.
 
Yeah, I mean I don't think it would be a really bad problem if you didn't get tested but it's still better to be on the safe side.
 
Have you any reason to be concerned? If you don't than don't start asking? This question to your other,will only make him think that you don't trust him?
 
I don't believe my husband would ever cheat on me, and we both got tested before getting married. But my OBGYN does it every time I go there. It's standard procedure and it's no trouble.
 
If there has been no infidelity in the marriage and no other sexual partners besides each other prior to the marriage, don't even worry about it. Now if there is reason ever in the future to question it, by all means see a doctor.

If the two of you have never been with anyone else, and you (honestly) never are with anyone else, you will never need to have a test for STDs. Some married people have reasons to get tested for STDs, if they believe their partners (or they know that they themselves) have had extramarital sexual relations.
 
If you guys trust each other enough, you shouldn't get tested because you have no reason to believe that anything is wrong, but it could never hurt. I'd almost rather be safe than sorry. It really wont hurt you either way. Good luck!
 
There is no need to do it unless you have valid reasons.
If you talk to your husband about it you'd be rocking the boat.
