Since it comes up repeatedly on other threads let's have a centralized thread for this. If you're hobbying it's a good idea to get checked and if you're BBFSing you owe it to yourself and everyone else to know your status.

STD Check https://www.stdcheck.com/.

Online (private, easy test you pay online then go to a Quest type collection center, costs some money, can pay with HSA card if you have one).

Howard Brown https://howardbrown.org/service/sexual-health-walk-in-clinic/.

(usually free and can walk in but you might have to wait a while).

Many neighborhood walk in urgent care clinics also offer STD testing, not free.

I believe it was less than a week from the lab visit to getting the results. I think there's a couple more sites like it as well. One other thing is that insurance will likely cover STD testing if it is rolled in with an annual checkup which is usually free. So it might be worth it for most people to go that route first through their doctor.

I used this, paid with a prepaid card, used my monger email and phone, made up a name and address, they emailed me results in 2 days, good experience, but yeah, if you don't mind going through insurance it's usually free. Also, if you use fake info, make sure to remember it!

If you are using a fake name and address, I assume that you don't need an I'd. So, when you show up, do you just say you have an appointment for "fake name", and they don't ask for any I'd or insurance info?

They didn't ask for anything except name, dob and address or zip or something when you get there. Have to thank flipper on this board for showing me this service.

With STDCheck you just print out a form and bring it along. There's a kiosk at Quest or the desk where you check in and give them the form. That's it.

I just had a test recently through my insurance. Clean across the board. In 2019, I probably did more BBFS than CFS and even did BB anal twice with providers unexpectedly. It's a big relief to get those results and know you're good to go.

I just used stdcheck.com I filled out the form online and created an account. You can use an alias since they do not ask for I'd at the time you walk in for your lab test. It cost me $195.00 for peace of mind for a ten panel test that checked for Hep A / B / C, HIV, Herpes simplex type 1 and 2, and Chlamydia. I have done some shit at the last minute and listened to my little head at the heat of the moment in the past. I got sick around 1st of January and haven't felt the best. Googling and coming up with shit that scared that shit out of me and starting worrying. It was totally worth it and very discreet testing. I used Labcorp since it was close to me. I went in around 1 pm on Tuesday and Wednesday at 6:30 pm I had the results. Its kinda steep but will worth it. Came back negative on everything which was a relief. You guys be careful out there, only takes one time to fuck up and you got the gift for life.

I read a report yesterday that 1 in 5 Americans have an STD. Seems very high. Have any of you mongers ever got an STD? Was it a reputable agency girl or independent? Was it BBFS or covered? I'm worried now hobbying.

I'm worried now hobbying.Mathematically, there is no doubt that one of us has gotten an STD mongering. Simply put this hobby has inherent risks associated with it, and this is the main reason I'm perfectly happy with just HJ and even now L1 I won't partake. If I where you I'd get my own condoms and triple check to ensure they don't splurge any extra saliva outside of the condom area. The fact remains it doesn't feel as good but boy does feeling safer and peace of mind make you more comfortable. The one that is the most common STD is Herpes, it spreads easily and is rampant. This is my biggest worry about this hobby and the reason I've dropped my visit considerably and will only do L1 with mutual massage. Find what is your happy medium compromise and stick with it, because every single time your only rolling the odds on that life dice.

I'm worried now hobbying.I know this post is super old but I just wanted to point out that HPV is an STD and chances are most of the guys on this board and almost every escort has it or has had it. There's generally no test for it for men, and most of the time is asymptomatic and clears on its own. You might have gotten it a few times in your life and never had any idea.

It's when it doesn't clear that problems start, especially in women. But HPV's prevalence usually skews those STD numbers into scary territory like you noticed.

My friend actually tested positive for chlamydia back in August which was a surprise to him since there were no symptoms. He never got tested for it before so it's hard to say whether he caught it from a SW or girls he hit raw that aren't SW's. 2 pills and it cleared right up in 7 days.

He never got tested for it before so it's hard to say whether he caught it from a SW or girls he hit raw that aren't SW's. 2 pills and it cleared right up in 7 days.Chlamydia is one of the most common STDs and probably the best one to get if you're going to catch an STD.

90% of women with Chlamydia have NO symptoms.

70% of men with Chlamydia have NO symptoms.

That's why it's important to get tested regularly if you're going to be playing this game.

Just because you don't have any symptoms doesn't mean you're clean.

You can also catch it by getting a BBBJ if the girl has the STD in her throat. Most doctors don't swab a women's throat for STDs unless there are symptoms. The universal test is a urine sample, but if a woman has Chlamydia or Gonorrhea in her throat it won't show up in a urine test.

Treatment for Chlamydia is simple with 2 pills, but anti-biotic resistance is increasing for Chlamydia and Gonorrhea. That means the meds we have to treat those STDs aren't working as well anymore.

P.S.: 1 out of 5 women have Herpes compared to 1 out of 9 men.

Why would one not want to have insurance involved? Is a a married thing? If someone was single would it matter?It costs me several hundred dollars more if I go to my doc and use my insurance. It's a lot cheaper to pay on my own through a STD testing site.

If you just want to just get a urine test for Chlamydia or Gonorrhea I recommend Lemonaidhealth.com.

It costs around $55 without insurance and they'll test you for both with a simple urine test. Takes less than 5 minutes and they'll email you results in a couple of days.

Their website will show you the nearest testing centers in your area and you can walk in the same day you order the test.

If you test positive for Chlamydia they will even prescribe you the meds. If you test positive for Gonorrhea you'll have to go to a local clinic because it requires a painful shot in the ass along with some pills.

You can order individual tests or do the 10-panel test for $139, which is the best deal.

This hobby if you want to call it that is not without it's risks, and a condom and your knowledge to use it well are the only lines of protection. It also helps to do a visual check on the girl before anything begins. I've one met a provide that clearly had a herpes sore on her lips and I immediately declined further service. You can tell she was cover it up with makeup but given I don't have it. It wasn't worth the risk to me. I also only engage in L1 for this reason alone; so cautious and be careful.

In regards to oral herpes, I wouldn't even kiss a person with that type of herpes, but unfortunately it's a very common type of herpes and everybody has had it or might have it at one point in his / her life.

I also like to do a visual and even a smell test but it may help in some cases but only a complete STD test (blood, urine, etc) will tell what's going on. And agree with you, a condom and knowledge may be offer more protection. But the best protection is celibacy.

I always ask girls if they have had the Gardisil vaccine. That prevents cervical cancer, as well as the warts.

About of the population of the US is seropositive for HSV-1 - that is not sexually transmitted, it can be from drinking from an unwashed glass, or whatever. Like all retroviruses, once you have it, you have it forever. The one you don't want to get is genital herpes, HSV-2. That you need to get tested for, her too.

Most young girls these days get the Gardisil vaccine. Under Obamacare, vaccinations are mandated free in any health plan. If the girl has any insurance and hasn't been vaccinated, she can get it for free. Require her to do this before FC, as well as an STD test. Also vaccinated against COVID, of course.

Messed around with a provider uncovered and got chlamydia.

Anyone have any advice on how to tell your spouse?I've never had (chlamydia or a spouse, hahaha, sorry) though the little head has gotten the better of me on a few occasions and I've gone raw dog. Anyways, a little research shows; "With treatment, chlamydia should go away within a week or two, however, the test may remain positive for 4 weeks after treatment. ".

Do you HAVE to tell her? Can you pull off 2 weeks of no sex with the wife, hide your antibiotics (and the prescription / medical bill) and hope it passes before she notices? I mean, that sounds better than just coming out and saying "I've been cheating on you and have the clap".

Lastly, any clues as to which provider gave you the gift that keeps on giving? Escort, Parlor, stripper?

Good luck, sucks, but if you start that treatment ASAP you'll be over it before you know it.

Messed around with a provider uncovered and got chlamydia.

Anyone have any advice on how to tell your spouse?I got it 10 years ago. It goes away after a week of antibiotics and then you have to retest and wait for those results to come back before engaging again. Was in an open relationship at the time and she was pissed because she thought I broke a rule and barebacked someone. I actually wore a condom. I think I got it because I didn't shower afterward and my balls were soaked were her fluids. But who knows.

Obviously if you haven't banged your wife since the provider, then you hold out with excuses until you've had enough antibiotics and are testing negative. If you might have given it to her, then you have two choices: tell a bad lie and hope she believes it, or confess that you cheated because you're unhappy / etc., and deal with the consequences. I personally wouldn't tell her it was a provider, since I wouldn't want her friends / family to ever know that part. And I would claim that I used a condom and it broke, since she'll be even madder about the barebacking.

The best bad lie I can come up with is I had a bad day at work, had a couple of drinks, and stopped in somewhere random for a massage. Had no idea that it was a shady place. Girl kept asking me something with a heavy accent that I didn't understand, and I just answered with "yes" to shut her up. Next thing you know the sheet came off and she is sliding her vag all over my junk. And it took me a while to realize what was happening, since I was half-drunk and in a daze from the massage. I pushed her off of me, but I guess it was too late. Worst part is that she demanded 100 after that.

If you wife would never fall for a story like that, then you're better off apologizing profusely and telling a half-lie (some random from craigslist or something).

Anyone have any advice on how to tell your spouse?Go to an urgent care that has the penicillin shot on hand. It goes in the rear. HIPPA laws prevent your diagnosis from being printed on your bill. However, it may list the "STD test. ".

Always use a condom if you're involved. Tuition paid in full. Hope your wife doesn't find out.

Messed around with a provider uncovered and got chlamydia.

Anyone have any advice on how to tell your spouse?Do you have reason to believe you've already infected your spouse? If so, then you'll have to come clean and be as contrite as possible. I've heard stories about guys sneaking in medication to their wife through teas and drinks, but I don't know how well that works, especially for something like chlamydia.

On another note, I know that we aren't allowed to publicly name girls who are infected, but can you at least tell us if you found her through one of the reviews, and approximately when you saw her? It'll be important to contain things before an outbreak happens. If you go to the Seattle board you'll see what I'm talking about. Pure chaos for two months because of one woman.

Anyone have any advice on how to tell your spouse?Best case for you is she's been banging your neighbor and now she's trying to figure out how to tell you. Seriously I think you have to know what's the best story for her, would she be more comfortable if it was an ex, co-worker, girl you met at a bar, a stripper, a massage parlor or an escort. Personally my wife would take a random chick at a bar over an ex or co-worker where emotions may be involved. The worst would be a getting it from a sex worker because she's going to correctly conclude that I've been doing this stuff our entire marriage.

Not everyone who gets chlamydia actually has symptoms and I don't think you can give it to someone immediately after catching it so if you caught it early you may have not given it to her. I would never bring it to her first.

With all this going around I stick to L1 since getting burned. Saves money too even though I miss the excitement of L3 and the possibility of BBFS.

You might check to under the events tab if there is library near you that does that. They tend to partner with Howard Browne.

The city of Chicago and cook county has them for free or sliding scale. They do accept walk ins but I would suggest getting there atleast 30 minutes before they open and / or calling to make they are accepting walk-ins.

I've used STDcheck, ordered it in the morning and found an appt at a lab same day. It was super easy, $140, and no insurance involvement (if that's an issue for you).

Best of luck!

Mod deleted my report but it's not like you can publish records of someone else test results. So let me say this, I am positive through 2 tests for Chlamydia. Given the incubation period it could be 7-21 days or more if asymptomatic. However I am not asymptomatic as I had burning, clear drip and some aches in testicles. So when I trace back my encounter over 2 months, I had 4. All had covered FS and BBBJ. Since covered FS is supposedly very safe though not fool proof, I have to guess it was from the BBBJ. Google shows that odds of that are very low also female to male. So I'm either very very unlucky, or I missed something like maybe when I was touching here and then touching myself or when I removed cover I let it touch my tip or something stupid. As for me I have to think it was the BBBJ which for my whole life I thought was safe. Anyway, that's my truth. So I can't name who or where but you can message me. What I know is in that 2 month period I was with 4 providers. My point to you all is that regardless of what you read online or what we think is safe, I am here to tell you it happens. I have been hobbying for about 30 years now and this is my first. Go figure. And I am married and I did tell my wife and it was a huge mess that I am dealing with now and have to go to counseling etc to save marriage. Also had to admit I'm a sex addict. And she is going to get tested herself today. It's a mess. I wish I was single and I'd hobby with no regrets but I'm not. So now I have to either find a way to quit or I have to be super duper extra careful and maybe even test before I do anything with wife and remember that testing only works if you allow incubation period, otherwise won't show accurate and you can still pass it.

There definitely seems to be an uptick in chlamydia going around. I stick to L1 now, should have from the start.

Sounds like someone that's probably asymptomatic is going around giving out free gifts before the Holidays. Stay safe.

There are false positves, and using a different test type after the first positve would help determine if you really have chlamydia. Too late now, but why reveal to your spouse your result until after you completed antibiotics and test negative and then abstain from the lifestyle. If it it comes back, then you would know she's infected.

"It should also be remembered that, when interpreting a positive result, NAATs do not require viable organisms. NAATs have superior analytical sensitivity as they can potentially produce a positive signal from as little as a single copy of the target DNA or RNA in the reaction. However, this high level of sensitivity can create problems because, although a positive NAAT result could reflect clinical infection, the test could also be amplifying dead organisms or be positive as a result of surface contamination (including contamination of the container in the case of self-collected specimens) and hence, produce a false-positive diagnosis.

Darth.It was most likely from 2 visits to KP and 1 visit to 262 as those were in the incubation period and were BBBJ was had and where there may have been some exchange from unprotected touching. Although I've had several guys reach out and tell me they got stuff at times they used covers and don't know how either. It happens. And def BBBJ is not safe.

".I tested twice 5 days apart and the tests are 99% effective with an almost impossible false positive. So don't believe the write up, these tests are usually very accurate. Very accurate especially after 7 days which is minimum incubation period and 100% accurate after 21 days. If symptoms present, they are 100% accurate. Usually the false negative is what you see due to early testing. You don't see false positives. Once treated you are told not to test again for 21 days to avoid false positive because treatment is 1000 mg of Azithromicin in single dose and can take 7-14 days to cure.

If it it comes back, then you would know she's infected.To answer, I had symptoms and tested positive. I tried very hard to remember dates and timeline and unfortunately I had sex with wife during that period. Not knowing exactly when, meant she had a 30-50% chance of receiving it. Male to Female infection is very high. Higher than female to male but not by a lot. Anyway, given that statistics said 70% females and 90% males are asymptomatic, made me question saying something or not. However if she gets it and I didn't say anything I would be worse because then I lied. And if she gets it asymptomatic like the statistic, then she reinfects me anyway. And not treating in her can lead to uterus problems, and worse conditions like PID. She's my wife, I'm not trying to make her worse. So the right decision was to come clean and pray for the best. Time to man up and own the decisions I made. Anyway, we both will be in counseling now for a while. It was very very very difficult conversation but she's still here and is working through it. I didn't say I had 4 etc. and all.

The others, I just said 1 and I said it was happy ending blow job with old Asian lady. At least to make her feel like this wasn't cheating affaire but rather a physical release dumb idea. I think that helped and worked. Women can accept a physical need more than an emotional replacement of them. Reality is I'm a sex addict as are pretty much everyone here and now I'm really hoping I can benefit from the therapy to try to get over this disease and lifestyle. Not worth it. I value my family much more just couldn't stop the temptations. Shit, it's hard when you see all these hotties available for a few bucks. Anyway, it sucks but I'm going to do it and she's sticking around. She got tested yesterday and we will find out tomorrow hopefully.

I'm glad you're putting your family first. I would clear your history on your phone and delete numbers. Make it just a little bit harder to find everything. The little bit of extra effort it takes to find that stuff definitely can help deter from looking at the temptation. I stopped for a while because it was consuming my life and I needed to stop. It's how. I got away from some social media. Some I had to put right delete. (Damn thirst traps in insta) but I know you can do it. And I'm pulling for you and yours to work through this and maybe find a way to satisfy each other so stepping out won't be needed.

I even had 1 more covered. You think I can still have it? Made up a hell of an excuse for the wife about tearing my frenulum which gave me some time.

Just remember that BBBJ is a risk. And not every girl is std loaded and not every encounter will pass it orally. Orally is lower odds, fairly low, but can happen obviously. And that's just for one STD. Others like Herpes simplex are much easier to pass orally both ways.

Stay safe.Dumb fool I am, I took a trip to a local AMP and think I got it again. I rubbed my member on her pussy a bit before covering up, but seems that might have been enough. Back to the clinic again for testing. Ffs.

I got it 10 years ago from cfs and no BJ, when I didn't shower until the next morning. I can imagine its easy to catch something if a provider cums all over you during cfs, then pulls the condom off for a sloppy BBBJ finish. Or it could spread from her pussy to your cock via DATY, DFK, then BBBJ. I've read conflicting reports about if STD bacteria can infect and stay in her mouth from a BBBJ with a previous client. Probably yes for a guy from earlier that day, but not sure about one from previous days. I've also read that mouthwash kills it. But who knows if that is BS. I try to stay safe by asking the girl if she used mouthwash beforehand, and making sure I shower as soon as the condom comes off (which is awkward if I want to go back for CIM). Also read that urinating immediately after exposure can lower chances of infection (but wouldn't count on only doing that) I get tested all the time via stdcheck, and been clean for 10 years. But who knows if I'm just getting lucky.

I just want to start a conversation about the safest way to get a BBBJ, since cbjs do nothing for me.

Most providers are open to using the shower. Especially at a hotel.

When I've had outcalls I offer the shower to the girl and they are happy to take me up on the offer.

I feel like for anybody getting into this hobby condoms are practically required. Yes I know that if you sleep with a lot of people or sleep with someone who has slept with a lot of people, then you're going to get something somewhere down the road. But you can at the very least minimize the damage, no reason to get herpes if you can avoid it. Also I agree with the use of alcohol as far as disinfectant goes, soap only cleans surface level it doesn't go on the deep cleansing alcoholic substances do.

Good evening Gents.

Have to give thanks to the community I found myself in a pickle where have been sleeping around too much with some lovely regular ladies and the gf was starting to get suspicious due to the lack of intimacy in our life. I just went today to get checked out hopefully comes back with clean bill of health so can enjoy some adventures with the SO. Thanks again to everyone here for the recommendations https://www.stdcheck.com/ it was easy and private so no worrying about her finding out I went to get tested.

WSB.This is a good service, anonymous, quick and accurate testing. In my case, however, it showed up on my credit card statement as something like "std test" not the ubiquitous name they claimed. So, I'd use a prepaid vanilla visa card from the grocery store, plus of course made up name and hobby email account.

It's not. If the girl has an STD in her throat she can easily pass it on to you from a BBBJ.

A girl can say she's been tested and clean, but a standard STD test is a urine and blood sample. If she has something in her throat it's not going to show up on a urine or blood test. She would have to specifically ask the doctor to swab the back of her throat and have it tested, which girls rarely do.

This needs to be said more, sure BBBJ feels amazing. Nobody is going to deny that it's better than CBJ anytime of the day; however it does come with it's risks and those risks are pretty high if she's giving any guy that comes in a BBBJ. It only takes 1 to infect the girl and after that she's a carrier passing it on to all the other men that she services.

I equate this addiction to riding a motorcycle without gear. Sure it's more fun and you feel the wind and danger at your doorstep giving you an additional thrill; but it only takes 1 fucken mistake and boom you got caught and your life will be changed for possible ever.

It's up to you as always whether you want to go in covered or unprotected but please know what your wagering every-time you do it. IMO it really isn't worth it. The best sex is mental, it's not all physical.

Not something I'm proud of, nor am I ashamed. Age brings a certain wisdom and willingness to tell people to go fuck themselves that I lacked when I was younger and actually cared about peoples impressions about me.

Anyway, in all those BBBJ's I never received anything at all except a few common colds. I'm not saying it's not possible, but it's a very low risk. The clap (G or C) can live in the throat and that is a risk. Herpes is also a risk although the vast majority of us actually have it and are asymptomatic. I imagine HPV is also a possible and guys generally never know if they have it. In fact, there are no tests for men with HPV.

Does anyone know of any effective holistic / natural treatment of gonorrhea and chlymadia or is antibiotics really the only option?Are you actually serious? You got an STD and you're asking if there is an alternative medicine when it's pretty clear and obvious what you should be taking. This isn't a cold, this is a sexually transmitted disease. If you don't want to believe in medicine that works, then why go to the hospital at all? You should be glad we found a cure for these STD's many before you have died of these diseases. If you don't treat it quickly it will only make things worse for you. So stop being stupid and get yourself properly treated before you spread it to someone else which is how you got it.

DuPage County does testing and I believe it's free or cheap. As I recall, there is one on Cass just north of Ogden in Westmont. I think they have several locations, probably in Wheaton too. Google DuPage County Health Dept.I've been google searching and no luck.

Is there any other info you have?

Are you actually serious? You got an STD and you're asking if there is an alternative medicine when it's pretty clear and obvious what you should be taking. This isn't a cold, this is a sexually transmitted disease. If you don't want to believe in medicine that works, then why go to the hospital at all? You should be glad we found a cure for these STD's many before you have died of these diseases. If you don't treat it quickly it will only make things worse for you. So stop being stupid and get yourself properly treated before you spread it to someone else which is how you got it.That post could not be serious, but it underscores the need for frequent testing in this hobby. Tbh, not a bad idea to use prep and doxy pep as needed if you can find a doctor that offers the doxy pep. I asked about this and docs had no idea, but if you look it up, pretty great idea actually for anyone in this hobby. Too bad they make it so difficult to get.
