Gonorrhea cases have been increasing over the years. The infections increased from 1,940 cases recorded in 2006 to a total of 4,315 cases recorded in 2017, translating to 153.9 percent per 100,000 in the population.
Chlamydia infections were the highest of the STDs reported. From 5,196 cases recorded in 2006, the number shot to 13,415 cases in 2017 with the highest rate cases occurring in females.
Syphilis cases had the lowest rates of all the STDs but health reports indicated an increase in the number of instances over the years. In 2006, there were 586 cases and in 2017, the number had almost tripled to 2,385 cases.
To reduce the number of STDs, Miami-Dade Department of Health has put in place a strategy of providing financial and technical resources to health care providers. The department provides resources to address problems encountered by STD victims like stigma, financial barriers, and lack of support systems.
Fontainebleau residents can visit some of the healthcare centers located in the city to check their sexual health.
The following medical facilities are some that are open to the public; Westchester General Hospital, Kindred Hospital South Florida – Coral Gables, and Sunshine Health center.
Free STD/HIV treatment and testing may be available in some of the hospitals but you may need to book an appointment beforehand due to a large number of people in need of the services and very long waiting times.
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.
