Introduction

What are the STI test options in Decatur,IL?

Health experts in Springfield, Decatur, and other communities around Illinois, have been experiencing frustration in the face of rising STD rates in their area. Decatur, the largest city in Macon County, is also the county seat.

One of the nursing directors for Macon County Health Department commented that rising rates were partially due to increased testing and eventually she hopes Decatur will see the rapidly increasing numbers level off. 

The 2014 county health report showed Macon County at a rate of 716 new chlamydia cases per 100,000 people tested. In 2017, Macon County ranked eighth highest for chlamydia, but at a rate of 682.5 per 100,000—their numbers are actually already dropping a bit compared to earlier years. For gonorrhea, the Decatur area took third highest in the state of Illinois with a rate of 328.6 per 100,000 people. Primary and Secondary Syphilis came in at 2.7 per 100,000 in 2017 for Macon County. Using data from 2013, Macon County put together a 2017 summary for HIV showing a rate of 154 per 100,000 tested. 

If you’re looking for affordable testing in the Decatur area, you have options. Free STD testing is offered for eligible patients through the Macon County Health Department. STI testing is on a walk-in basis, so you’ll have to wait your turn. The free testing is only offered select days, call to find out when. Screening includes trichomoniasis, yeast, BV, chlamydia, syphilis, and gonorrhea. They also offer confidential testing for HIV. Tests for hepatitis provided on a case-by-case basis. If you can’t make those times, you can head over to Planned Parenthood on Oakland Avenue. Call to schedule an appointment ahead of time and to see if your HIV/STI testing can be covered sans copay.

Central Illinois LGBTQ Community Center (The Phoenix Center)

Overview

STD Testing at 109 E Lawrence Ave, Springfield, IL 62704, USA

The Phoenix Center was established into Springfield, IL on April 1, 2001. A group of teenagers that were in the LGBT community wanted a safe place to socialize. Since then, their services and groups have expanded. They offer free testing for STD’s, a transitional housing program for homeless men and women who have HIV, a harm reduction initiative project, educational programs for middle school, high school, and college students, and much more. Their biggest event that raises awareness of the center and their programs is the Springfield PrideFest.

Qualifications

The Phoenix Center has HIV, Hepatitis C, Gonorrhea, and Chlamydia testing services available to the LGBTQ community. Besides this requirement, there are no other requirements before someone can be tested.

Treatment Options

The Phoenix Center does not offer treatment on-site but they do offer referrals for treatment and further support services.

Sexual Health Education

STD Testing and Sexual Health Education in Decatur, IL

With the rapidly growing population in Decatur, awareness for sexual education is a priority to all residents. You can easily get all the information you need about STDs and the general sex education from the health centers, Universities, high schools, Planned parenthood centers, etc. Sex education is vital for everyone prior to the age of sex experimentation and is meant to help you realize the dangers of unprotected sex including unwanted pregnancies and the risk of sexually transmitted diseases.

With the alarming rates of infection, Decatur school based sexual health education has employed two strategies. The two policies are abstinence only and the comprehensive sexual health education. The latter includes creating awareness on birth control measures, STI prevention, healthy relationships, and providing information on abstinence while the Abstinence only strategy means instilling to the youth that they should abstain from sex until marriage. With the rising percentage of youths involvement in sex in Decatur the comprehensive strategy proved to be more effective than abstinence only.

Different hospitals have nurses and counsellors who help in sensitizing the entire population about STDs in Decatur. Most of the hospitals in Decatur will provide you with condoms and help you with STD testing information. Also, Universities and colleges provide condoms and free STD information and testing to help you make infromed sex decisions. It’s also good to note that there is no discrimination in Decatur when offering STD services, these are services offered to all regardless of status, race, denomination, or marital status.

Sexually Transmitted Diseases and Demographics in Decatur, IL

A recent study showed that the total population of Decatur is more than 81, 000 people. Transmission of STDs with this kind of population is very fast. The research further showed that STD transmission among the youth was very acute and Macon county had the most infections out of the 102 counties. This has forced the whole state to chip in and awaken the youth and the whole population on the dangers of STDs.  As depicted by the Robert Wood Johnson foundation, Macon County has a Teen pregnancy rate of 55 per 1000 people. This clearly shows that teens engage in unprotected sex and are prone to STD infections.

DUe to low income rates and minimal job opportunities, most of the youth have turned into drug use, which has elevated the level of crimes like prostitution. This has in turn increased the rate of STD transmission in Macon county; for instance, Chlamydia rate of infection is six times more than the Nation’s rate  of 84 people per 100, 000. This clearly shows the need for knowing your status and your partner’s status as well. Whether married or not, having a girlfriend or a boyfriend, it’s prudent for you to seek STD testing regularly for the safety of your life. Also, being single or divorced or separated, you need to know your status so as to plan your life.

The need for HIV and other STD testing will help you make informed sex choices like abstaining or using protection like condoms, regardless or your religion, race or place of origin. Though the poverty in some of the families can’t allow for regular testing, there are public centers where some of these tests and education are given for free. There are also less time consuming tests that won’t take a lot of your time but which ultimately will save your life from STDs. Don’t judge your partner or friend by looking, get tested. There are also community outreach programs that have been facilitated to help the poor access the comprehensive sexual education and testing.  So don’t freak out by the thought of having an infection. Save your life and the life of your loved one.
