I recently after a night of drinking went home with a guy and had unprotected sex with him. I have never had a one night stand before so I feel very quilty and ashamed. I am on birth control so I am not worried about getting pregnant but I am worried about STD's. I talked with the guy and he assured me that he had been tested within the last year and he was clean and had only protected sex with the other girl(s) he had been with this year. My thing is if he had unprotected sex with me than he has probably done it before. How soon can I get checked for STD's and how worried should I be. Please help... Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Some people decide to get tested because they worry or think they've been exposed to an STI. Some get tested before they decide to have sex with each other. If you have been having unprotected sex or if your partner has, it's smart to be tested. Other people choose to get tested as part of a routine sexual health exam. If someone wants to be tested for STIs, a variety of health care providers can screen for these infections. Typically, though, providers don't automatically test for STIs, and they don't test for every STI, unless they notice, or you mention, something suspicious. This is of concern since some STIs have no symptoms — 80 percent of chlamydia in women is asymptomatic, for example, and herpes is episodic. So, if you think you may have been exposed to an STI, experience possible symptoms, or have concerns, it is important to discuss this with your health care provider.

1 week, but some diseases could present themselves sooner or later than that. If you have a discharge go as soon as you notice it or if you have any other symptoms presenting themselves consult your dr.
