We have a version of the Embarrassing Bodies programme over here. I don't get why some people are so ashamed of some condition they have they wont go to their doctor about it.

But they will go on national TV and let millions of viewers see it all in HD detail.

Have never been tested. Due to my low number of partners, infrequent activities and trusting partners, I can be pretty sure I'm ok. However getting mouth cancer from giving oral sex does concern me.

I get tested (syph, gon, chlam, hiv, hpv) annually. HSV isn't tested for in my area unless you have symptoms or have previously had a positive result. Sadly, like most Americans, I can't afford to test every three months for anything other than HIV (which is free) so I have to rely on safe(r) sex and pointed questions.

Longest I go without testing is 3months. I usually get a test done when I’m traveling back to Singapore and we do that quite often, although most of the travel isn’t planned. I’ve got a Husband, a regular bf and a few other partners here and there that come and go. We make sure we’re all tested regularly, but also know that even then, we might still catch something. So that’s just one of the things we accept if we want to continue our thing.

It's pretty much standard procedure with blood donation here, so one thing takes care of the other

As for the nurse's reaction ... Really ?

I was exclusive for most of my first marriage, because I didn't want to cheat and didn't have a pass. There was no reason to test then.

Eventually, when she was away for more than about four weeks at a time, she granted me passes during her times away, and even so I only exercised the pass once. (It wasn't for lack of trying; the opportunity just wasn't there, except for the occasional opportunity that I just didn't want to exercise.) That one time, I used condoms. I don't remember how long after that I got tested.

When first wife and I split, I had only one partner (who I typically refer to as "evil ex-girlfriend" or "Parasite") for about a year, and didn't test, because I knew I was clean going into that relationship. I probably should have pushed her to test, but I didn't. I didn't even watch for visible signs of risk, foolishly thinking that she was also exclusive.

After I dumped her, I was in a new relationship very soon. And the new partner and I tested as soon as we had a chance, and used condoms until the tests came through clear. Unfortunately, Parasite had managed to pass something on to me that was neither part of any routine test nor stopped by condoms. Fortunately, that condition (molluscum) was treatable and not particularly dangerous, just annoying and a bit painful. It's long gone now, from both of us.

The new partner and I are now married. We both tested three or four times after the initial test, and tested for everything. All clear.

In the event that I get a pass again, go back on the market, and actually find a partner who interests me, I'll test regularly, and watch out for all the risk factors.

At least you know to test even with being monogamous.

Right. By now we've been exclusive for much longer than any incubation time I've heard of. Technically I only know that I've been exclusive, but I'm pretty confident that she's been exclusive too.
