Frequently Asked Questions About STDs

We strive to provide you with as much information as possible regarding STDs and STD testing to address your concerns and answer your questions.

Is it usually possible for your insurance program to cover an STD test?

It does vary on a case-to-case basis. Insurance policies are often particular with the instances that they would be covering with their program. Some may cover severe accidents, some may even consider “orphan disease,” and yes, some may also cover the expenses for performing STD diagnostic tests. However, considering that your insurance provider will have to verify the person's identity availing of the program, STD testing laboratories that employ a minimal collection of patient information may not accept insurance policies to prioritize privacy over affordability.

Yes. STDs – or at least in the case of the most common ones – do not necessarily induce immunity upon being initially infected with the condition. This essentially means that even if you get infected multiple times by the same pathogenic species and no matter how many times you have been exposed to the condition, you could still contract the STD if and when you are reinfected with the particular causative microorganism.

Similar to how other testing procedures behave, false-positive results are still evident even in STD testing. False-positive and even false-negative results are standard instances that showcase the imperfection of the test’s design – a factor that is present everywhere. However, despite certain inconsistencies in laboratory tests as such, physicians commonly use confirmatory tests that would often take another path entirely to arrive at the same conclusion – solidifying the initial test’s diagnosis while still ensuring that the second test is not following the inconsistencies of the first.

Unfortunately, the only way to resolve any physical damages is through physical reconstruction and surgeries. Medications are only effective in preventing the proliferation of the condition and killing the causative microorganism. Any physical damage left behind by the infection is often irreversible unless managed by an invasive procedure that will most likely cost thousands to perform without guaranteeing functional restoration.

As previously mentioned, the most common way for STDs to be transmitted from one individual to another is through contact with bodily fluids, i.e., genital excretions, sexual fluids, and blood. While sexual intercourse might be the most logical process as to which one could come into contact with bodily fluids in the least invasive way, sharing needles through intravenous drug use, partaking in unsanitary bloodletting programs, or even partaking in unconventional ways of intercourse such as oral sex, may result in the transmission of the condition.
