Don’t let the overall statistic of low overall STD rates in the state fool you. The rate of some sexually transmitted diseases in Nebraska has been on the rise in urban areas such as Douglas County for the past 5 years. Cases of chlamydia have increased by over 25%. Much of the STD cases are Most urban areas; however, anyone who is sexually active is at risk.
Nebraska has several testing sites all over the state. In urban areas, there are more testing centers to accommodate the higher populations. Counties often share testing sites in rural areas.
Sexually transmitted diseases are bacterial or viral infections spread through sexual contact. With the number of cases increasing across the country, it has never been so important to get tested regularly if you are sexually active. Many people infected with STDs never show symptoms which makes it more important to get tested.
Some quick facts from the CDC:
The Nebraska Board of Education recommends an abstinence -based sexual education program, but no schools are required to teach it. With school budget cuts, this types of education may or may not make it to the curriculum especially with struggling school systems. This often leaves a vast gap of knowledge in Nebraska’s youth that leaves them susceptible to early sexual encounters and sexually transmitted diseases.
Sex education across the U.S. advocates abstinence as the only way to prevent teen pregnancy and STDs. Depending on the state, it can be a comprehensive study of sexuality or a brief overview of sex. States that have optional sex education programs often rank near the national average on stats on teen births and STD rates among teens.
Quick facts on teen pregnancies
Some of these stats are not unique to the county. It makes it very clear that teens are sexually active at a young age.
Routine screenings are especially important if you are sexually active and a teen. If you are worried about your parents finding out, STD screenings are available for teens even without parental consent. However, in some instances, parents or guardians can be notified that services have been received because of legal or billing regulations.
This should not stop you from being tested. Many STD’s can be cured or managed with the right treatment. Chlamydia, gonorrhea and syphilis are all bacterial infections which can be cured by antibiotics if they are caught early. Other infections such as herpes and genital warts are manageable with the right medications.
The only way to know if you are infected is to get tested.
Nebraska has a very diverse population demographics. With two large metropolitan centers, nearly 90% of the towns have a population of under 3,000. While this might seem of little concern to some, when it comes to STD it makes a huge difference.
Nebraska like many states with large rural areas must focus on two very different demographics. The STD rates in the urban areas are high while the rural rates are low. Nebraska has to focus on educating the urban areas without alienating the rural areas.
But the message is clear no matter where you live. Anyone who is sexually active is at risk for sexually transmitted diseases. Your risk is increased by certain factors such as:
While many STDs can be cured if caught early, some infections can only be managed with medications. Not every infection results in symptoms which make it more difficult to determine if you have been infected. The only sure way to know is to be tested.
History has a way of making you realize how short life really is. Go ahead and enjoy a great evening with your partner, just remember to play it safe. That means getting tested. While you may feel fine, you could be carrying an infection that could be passed on to your partner. With a phone call, you can schedule an appointment at a private clinic. There are clinics all over the state. Within 30 minutes you be on your way in plenty of time to catch a ball game or enjoy the stars.
