Existing research provides limited insight into how heterosexual adults approach and use HIV and STI testing, an intervention that can inform the need for treatment and reduce onward transmission. Through in-depth interviews with 50 heterosexually active women and men in New York City conducted in 2023 and 2024, we found that testing for HIV and STIs was widespread and integrated into broader health care routines. Our exploratory study identified three primary approaches that participants used as needed:\n                    <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">preemptive testing<\/jats:italic>\n                    (used before having sex with new partners or discontinuing condom use);\n                    <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">reactive testing<\/jats:italic>\n                    (following heightened risk perceptions); and\n                    <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">routine screening<\/jats:italic>\n                    (as part of ongoing sexual health maintenance).
