We recommend, based on (Centers for Disease Control) guidelines, that sexually active individuals (specifically women) are tested annually for both chlamydia and gonorrhea. Furthermore, it is recommended that all sexually active gay, bisexual and other men who have sex with men (MSM) are tested at least annually for syphilis, gonorrhea and chlamydia. Everyone at the university level should be tested at least once for HIV. More specifically, if you are not practicing safe sex, it is best to get tested for HIV at least once a year. Many STIs do not have symptoms, so a person may never know until they get tested. I think consent and partner notification of STIs are separate things specifically, but they are very much related when it comes to protecting the health and safety of your partner.
