Coon Rapids is a city in Anoka County Minnesota. From recent data in 2017 for Anoka County, there were 311 cases of Gonorrhea and 1,238 cases of Chlamydia, and 238 cases of HIV.
According to the Anoka Public Health Department’s website, “Chlamydia cases in Anoka County have more than doubled in the past 10 years, with the highest number reported in women age 15-24 years.”
Public health in Coon Rapids is managed by the Anoka County Public Health Department. The public health department supports the area through resources such as the STD hotline.
There are a few options in Coon Rapids for STD testing. There is a public testing center called Nucleus Clinic on Coon Rapids Blvd NW. There are also two Allina Health clinics, one on Blackfoot St NW and the other on Springbrook Dr.
In surrounding areas, there are a couple clinics to choose from. There is a Planned Parenthood clinic nearby in Brooklyn Park on 78th Ave N. There are also two North Memorial Health clinics in Robbinsdale on Oakdale Ave and the other in Fridley on Osborne Road NE. In Anoka, there is a HealthPartners RiverWay Clinic on Jacob Ln.
Some of the clinics offer free STD testing but not always. In choosing a clinic, the services may not be comprehensive or free. Some clinics might also have long wait times or inconsistent hours. Furthermore once the tests have been ordered, it might take some time for results to come back.
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.
