Can men be dormant carriers of sexually transmitted diseases?Can a man be a dormant carrier of sexually transmitted diseases? In other words, can a STD surface, go away and resurface?

yes males and females can have many different types of diseases dormant in their bodies and one day can rear their ugly heads at u or if its an std, rear its head at ur partner.

Oh yeah, absolutely.
As a matter of fact, many do not surface at all, such as many strains of HPV. One can be a carrier of HIV for ten years or more before it becomes apparent.
Herpes and syphilis are also STDs that show up and seem to go away, leaving the person a carrier. In the case of syphilis, the disease slowly works on the nervous system producing dementia after a decade or two.
Best practice for one who is in doubt is to get tested at a local health department or doctor's office.
