Which Home Pregnancy Test Kits Can Tell If You Have Contracted Sexually Transmitted Diseases ?

I saw a commercial for a new home pregnancy test that not only tells you if you are pregnant but also informs if you have an STD, do you know the name of this test? I recently had unprotected sex and am a little worried and would like to check asap to find out.

Hello;
welcome to HealthcareMagic
The test for STD is a specialized test so it is difficult to rely on anything commercial for as serious infection as STD.So if you feel or fear the exposure you can get tested at a nearby laboratory it will be better.As for the pregnancy test to be done at home it is fine and if you miss your periods then do it at home.
Thanks
