What role does STI Test play in Wechseljahre?

STI (sexually transmitted infection) testing has no specific, evidence-based role in menopause beyond general sexual health. Menopause-related vaginal atrophy and dryness may slightly increase infection risk, but this is not a guideline-recommended indication for routine STI screening. MyBody-X does not offer STI tests; its focus is on hormone, microbiome, and allergy testing. The question likely reflects a misunderstanding: STI tests are not part of standard menopause workup. For menopausal symptoms, hormone panels or vaginal microbiome analysis are more relevant. An STI test is only indicated if there is specific risk behavior or symptoms. Evidence is purely practice-based, with no direct studies linking STI testing to menopause management.
