| No. There is no single test for all sexually transmitted infections — separate tests are needed. Genital warts, pubic lice, and scabies may be detected during a physical exam. Blood may be drawn to test for hepatitis, herpes, HIV, or syphilis. Urine samples can be used to test for gonorrhea, chlamydia, or HIV. Samples of discharge can be used to test for herpes, gonorrhea, chlamydia, trichomonas, or syphilis. Tissue can be tested for chlamydia, gonorrhea, or scabies. Saliva can be used to test for HIV antibodies.
Clinicians don't automatically test for sexually transmitted infections — you should ask to be tested. Be honest with your clinician about your sexual history and what risks you've taken, and the two of you can decide which tests are appropriate.
