There isn?t any one time frame where all STDs and HIV should up, therefore, there isn?t a simple answer to this question. If you have had unprotected sex and are worried about an STD or HIV, you should get tested 1 to 2 weeks after and again 90 days later. This is because different STDs are detected at different times: Chlamydia - anytime from 1 week to 3 weeks Gonorrhea - anytime from 2 days to 30 Syphilis - anytime from 10 days to 3 months Herpes ? anytime from 2 weeks to 3 months Hepatitis B ? anytime from 3 weeks to 2 months Hepatitis C ? anytime up to 6 months HIV ? anytime from 4 weeks to 3 months Once you get tested, you should abstain from sex with anyone until you have received the results.
