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!
Because it brings strength and power in you...
After your period is due and has passed after 5 days then check again or take a urine test.
