Do routine blood/urine tests reveal STD's?

Question

During a recent pysical, I had routine blood and urinalysis done. The tests included a prostate antigen test, urine culture, urinalysis, basic metabolic panel, and a hemogram/blood count through routine venipuncture. Everything tested "normal." Would these tests reveal the presence of STD's?

Answer 1

It just depends. Syphillis is a blood test. Gonorrhea and Chlamydia can be detected in urine, but they then take a swab to confirm a positive result.

Doctors don't normally test for STDs unless you specifically ask them to.

Answer 2

No, most routine blood tests don't test for STD's. However, the blood test could offer a clue towards an STD - for example, if you white blood cell count is off it could indicate an infection, like an STD. But generally, if you want to test for STD's you need to do a separate test.

Answer 3

no. Prostate antigen tests are self explanatory and states if your prostate is enlarging. urine culture tests for bacteria that would indicate a UTI. A urinalysis consists of things like pH, glucose, ketones, protein, a BMP has things like potassium and sodium levels, and a hemoglobin/hematocrit tests those things specifically. none of this tests of any type of std.

Answer 4

Most Urine tests examine for specific things!
Sounds Like your prostrate PSA levels were being checked for abnormalities.

Swabs of the urethra and Specific STi Tests need to be done to discover if an STi is present!

Only you know if you have taken a Risk and potentially exposed yourself to an STi-Check yourself for Obvious Pain, discomfort and/or Swelling in the water department!

Answer 5

with a blood test you can check for HIV, hepatitis, and syphilis. things like chlamydia, gonorrhea, and trich have to be done with a swab of the internal vagina or internal penis. although there are new tests out now where chlamydia can be tested through a urine test. I personally dont think that one is that accurate. if you think you have an STD, get seen immediately. if you are a female, it is very dangerous to let chlamydia or gonorrhea sit in your uterus. it can scar your fallopian tubes permanently and infertility will result. hope i have helped

As far as reward advantage goes, yes - that you would be able to discover who's the father of the little one. Of path, with some main issue. DNA from father will probably be handed on to the son with some mixing from mom's DNA. So some alterations can also be located. When that is handed to the grand kid changes grow to be more stated. Whether it is from father himself , then less alterations. DNA can not match a new person, more commonly------ its only one in billion case, yet to be seen. DNA of the little one is more close to the son's, slightly some distance to the grand father's very far to the stranger's
