A LOT of STDs can lie dormant in your system, and quite a few can trick you into thinking you're perfectly healthy. Best to be tested regularly--even if you stick with the same sex partner. When it comes to this, it's better to err on the side of caution--the majority of STDs can be treated effectively if caught early, but if not they can cause permanent damage to your reproductive organs. Be safe!
