Simple question;
Do you get tested after every naughty night? We do. Hope everyone else does.
When we first went they kept asking how many etc. Once we said we went to swing clubs they stoped asking. They just give us a full screening.

Depends when you go. If you go a few days after every meet, it is a totally pointless exercise, and frankly a waste of money and time. Most STI's have an incubation period of any where up to 3 months. |

"If you are using condoms and playing safe then why would you need to? Have you considered what a waste of NHS time and money that is?"
Hope you're just meaning you wouldn't need to after every meet and not you wouldn't need to at all if you use condoms! 
Personally, I go about every 3-4 months depending on how much I've been playing. If I were to go after every meet I'd probably see more of the nurses at the clinic than I do of my friends and family  |

no I don't get tested every time, I think unless your a couple who only meets every now and again that's unrealistic, I wouldn't have the time to go everytime I had sex
if I feel there's a problem after a meet ie if the condom ever came off or something like that then I would go get tested after a meet other wise I just go every 2 to 3 month |

Yes I meant it wouldn't be necessary after every meet...even using condoms isn't 100% safe...we all know that...dont we? |

"Are you aware that condoms don't protect you from Chlamydia or Gonorrhoea?
You can carry it in your throat. Go down on a guy or girl and hey presto!"
well aware.. but no point getting tested after every guy.. I would be there all the time and it's no point.. so every four weeks xxx |

No I don't. For the same reason that I don't visit my GP every time someone in the same room as me sneezes. It isn't necessary.
4-6 times a year has always been enough in my experience. |

Just checking! Amazes (and scares!) me how many don't seem to realise that...or thing they don't need to get tested unless they have symptoms  |

I don't quite understand why you 'hope everyone else gets tested after each time they have sex with someone other than their partner' ??
It's completely unnecessary and a waste of peoples time and money. Every few months is the norm in my experience |

When we started swinging we also chose to visit the clinic to be sure we were clear . When asked why we were asking so many questions we answered that we were going to start swinging . So we were both advised that hep jabs would be sensible and regular check ups thereafter . How regular we asked - every three months , and possibly more if an accident with the condom occurred .
So to go every time one has a meet is totally unnecessary and impractical for those who regularly play .
We have now been swinging for over two years and up to now have been happily clear following the advice of the clinic .
