When should you have an STD test done?

When you're exposed to an STI, it takes time for these antibodies to build. To ensure an accurate result, it is best to wait at least 12 days from the time of exposure before getting tested.
The window of time for STDs depends on the type of virus. Antibody testing for HIV can occur between 18 days and 90 days.
