How long does it take for an STD to show?
Asked by jennylo on October 2, 2013
How long does it take for you to notice you have an STD after having sex? If months have gone by, and you have no signs, you should be good, right?
eg. Can you get STD from giving your partner a BJ?

Some people get herpes and it doesn't show up for a very long time. HIV can take years to show up. Next time and every time use a condom. It is such an easy way to at least cut down on the risk of getting something. Do to your Dr. and get a simple test. Guys get q-tips shoved in places they don't want to talk about and girls get this thing that looks like a pipe cleaner (just on the end) placed in places they don't want to talk about. It simple and quick and then you will have the answers you want or maybe don't want, but you will know.

Some people can have STDs and not have any symptoms EVER. You need to see a doctor to be sure.

If this question is one regarding your health, please go get it checked for your own sake.
The person above is 100% correct, some people will never get symptoms of an STD they can carry it for ages/forever with no obvious symptoms. Mean while the STD does all the damage in the background without your knowledge…eg making you infertile. Even the HIV virus can go years and years before you get any symptoms.
