In 2016, Washington County had an HIV prevalence rate of 169.8 per 100K people, a bit under Oregon’s rate of 195. The same year, the county had a chlamydia rate of 393, below Oregon’s rate of 432.5. The county had gonorrhea and (primary and secondary) syphilis rates of 79.6 and 8.5. Most syphilis sufferers in Oregon are men, while over two-thirds of chlamydia patients are women.
Health officials urge all sexually active people to use protection every time they have sex and to get tested regularly, even if they are not experiencing symptoms.
Most STIs are asymptomatic in the early stages. But if the disease is left undetected and untreated, it can cause irreversible damage to the body. Plus, it can be passed on to others.
Beaverton has some clinics, and there are even more options closer to Portland. At least one nonprofit provides free STD testing for HIV only, but there may be a wait for this first-come, first-serve clinic.
Planned Parenthood is located on 1st St. They test for STIs and treat all except HIV, and the fee is on a sliding scale. AFC Urgent Care on Allen Blvd also provides STD screening.
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention1 (CDC) recommends screening for the most common STDs, including chlamydia, gonorrhea, hepatitis B, hepatitis C, syphilis, herpes 1, herpes 2, and HIV for both men and women. In addition, the CDC suggests women get screened for trichomoniasis.
SaferSTD recommends searching for locations that offer a 10-test panel which tests for the most common bacteria and viral STDs in the U.S. with additional premium add-ons like early HIV detection, if needed.
The CDC2 provides detailed STD testing information as to when you should get tested. In summary, you should get tested today if you are sexually active, never been tested before, have had unprotected sex in the past, or if you exhibit symptoms.
According to the World Health Organization3, the majority of STI cases reported every day, more than one million, are asymptomatic; another reason to get tested today.
You should get tested again in 90 days to rule out STDs that have specific exposure waiting times, including HIV.
STD testing can be a quick and simple process, depending on the type of test you choose and where you get tested. Some may require an oral or genital swab, a urine test or blood sample, or a physical exam to check your genital area for signs of an STD.
SaferSTD has identified preferred providers that require only a urine test, a blood sample, or both without a physical exam.
The speed at which you receive your STD testing results depends on where you get tested. Before you choose your location, find out how long testing results will take.
At-home STD testing results are usually 3-5 business days, depending on the manufacturer of your test. You also need to take into account the amount of time it takes to receive the test or pick one up, perform the test, and ship it back, before the lab can analyze your results and report back to you.
If you test at a public facility such as a neighborhood clinic, you may have to wait a week, if not more for the results, which could delay treatment. If you test through a private facility, they have the fastest turnaround within 1-3 business days.

In response to the rising STD rates the state has made changes to its sex education curriculum, though it should be noted that these classes still promote abstinence. The public school districts must now include information on how all STDs are spread and on the proper use of condoms. The new bill also states that abstinence based curriculum must also be included, even though some of the information might not be accurate.
Even though this is a step in the right direction, most health officials agree that it is not enough. School districts do not have the material they need to implement these changes, and most aren’t in a hurry to do so. When this is combined with the abstinence programs that are already in place students are still not receiving the information they need to protect themselves.
As long as students are taught that abstinence or a monogamous relationship is the best way to prevent the spread of STDs the infection rates will continue to rise. The best way for students and adults to stop the spread of STDs is to be tested on a regular basis. This includes regular HIV testing in Beaverton, regardless of age or sexual inclination. It is currently the only way to detect the disease, and the simple procedure could help save your life.
Regular Herpes testing in Beaverton is also important, especially since the virus is running rampant through area high schools.
The city’s close proximity to Portland is contributing to its high STD rate, but this is not the only demographical factor that is causing it to rise. There are several reasons why the city is dealing with a high number of sexually transmitted infections each year that include economics and a lack of education.
When the housing and stock markets fell in 2008, residents in this bedroom community suffered the same economic hardships. When this is combined with the recent budget cuts to Medicaid and community health centers many residents simply cannot afford to be tested on a regular basis. This is especially true for larger low income families with several members who need to be tested. The budget cuts has also forced many community STI centers to close their doors or have limited hours of operation.
The main contributing factor remains the city’s sex education program. Until all of its public primary and secondary schools have the material they need for these classes, students will remain at risk. Since STDs can be spread without engaging in sexual activity this means that everyone in Beaverton is potentially at risk.
The only way to protect yourself and your loved ones is to visit a nearby STI clinic regularly, and encourage others to do the same.
Taking responsibility for your sexual health is important, even if you don’t believe that you are at risk. The procedure is simple and relatively painless, and it could potentially save your life. Before you head off to tour the area’s wineries or spend the day fishing at Dairy Creek it is important that you take the time to visit a STI clinic.
