Sexual Health
This is a judgment-free space for any sexual health question you might be too embarrassed to ask your doctor or friends.

All questions are valid and welcome. Remember: knowledge is the most powerful thing you can have when it comes to your health.
Question: how often should you actually get tested if you're casually dating? I do annual checkups but wondering if that's enough with multiple partners over a year.
Replying to the testing question — the general recommendation is every 3-6 months if you have multiple partners. Annual is the bare minimum. Most sexual health clinics offer fast free testing now.
Genuinely appreciate that this thread exists. Had a question I was too embarrassed to ask my GP and got better more practical answers here than I expected. Thank you whoever created this space.
