The CDC has published screening recommendations for sexually active adults to test for STDs:
● Everyone should get at least one HIV test.
● All sexually active women younger than the age of 25 and older women who have risk factors like new or multiple sex partners should be screened annually for chlamydia.
● At-risk sexually active women should be screened annually for gonorrhea.
● Pregnant women should be screened for syphilis, HIV, chlamydia and hepatitis B, and at-risk pregnant women should be screened for gonorrhea during their first prenatal visit.
● All HIV-infected women should be screened annually for trichomoniasis.
● All sexually active gay and bisexual men should be screened at least annually for syphilis, chlamydia, gonorrhea and HIV.
● Those who have had multiple or anonymous partners should be screened more frequently for STDs (preferably in three- or six-month intervals).
● Those who use illegal drugs, particularly methamphetamine, and those whose partners use drugs should be screened more frequently.
