Default How long do STDs take to show on results? - 12-30-2008, 09:31 PM

Last night i received oral sex, from someone i really don't know. I wanted to get tested for STDs, but how long do they take to show on a test? Should i wait a week, 2 weeks, month? Also, where can i find a clinic that does either free or low cost testing in Massachusetts.

It depends on the STD in question, but I would wait about a month. I know herpes takes about 2 weeks to show symptoms, but there are a lot that don't show symptoms. Can't help you with the clinic question, sorry. :-( I'm in a different state.

It could take up to 3 months, or in very rare cases, up to 6 months, for HIV to show up on tests. Other STDs should show up on tests within a few months.You can go to your local Health Department or Planned Parenthood for free or low cost testing, or check the website hivtest.org.
