Hi...question about STIs and sensitiity of the tests...brief background...met someone Oct 29, had sex...afterward I noticed sores on the underside of his penis...he said they were from a) shaving b) masturbating too much...a week later I had soreness, itching and what I thought might be UTI (lots of urination, soreness) and a small rash....went to STI clinic Nov 9, 11 days after encounter....tests for chlaymidia, Gonorrhea, syphillis all negative....
how good are the tests these days? Was 11 days too short a time period to detect chlamydia or gonnorhea?
Reasons I ask is a new symptom appeared...left testicle is very sore..started yesterday...on scale of 1-10 it's a 5.
Have Drs appointment later this week but thought I'd ask.
Did I get tested too soon?
