How often should people at risk for an STD be tested? Every 6 months. When symptoms appear. Once a year. After every sexual partner.

At the least, once a year.

This can vary between people with certain partners and such. You should test before symptoms appear because usually, once symptoms appear, it is too late to be cured or treated.

Every six months can be frequented and sometimes preferred but is not required. Once a year is the least a person could do to test for STD's.

Hope this helps!
