Sexual health tests help detect active infections or previous exposure. People consider them as routine screening, after a change of partner, or when a possible exposure needs to be checked.
A basic checkup covers HIV, syphilis and hepatitis B and C. An advanced version adds bacterial infections such as chlamydia and gonorrhea, for a more thorough review.
Some people prefer the basic screen as a regular check, while others choose the advanced one when they want more detail or are investigating symptoms.
