Franklin county located at the heart of Indiana States has an estimated population of 22,934 people. Just like the entire United States of America, the county is struggling with ever increasing incidences of sexually transmitted diseases.
According to the Franklin County Department of Health 2014 data, there were 416 cases of Chlamydia at the rate of 480.4 versus the state rate of 376.7. 98 cases of gonorrhea were reported at an incidence rate of 113.2 with S.R being 88.1 way quite high. Within the same period, 6 cases of syphilis were report at a less than 3 rate. However, there is a notable growth in numbers over the last five years with over 27%.
The report further establishes that syphilis hit the historic high in 2015 to 2016 where a 17.6% increase was noted to have the incidence rate at 8.7 cases per 100,000 people. Congenital syphilis remains an alarming health issue.
Indiana State Department of Health is currently running a STD prevention and control program dubbed ‘Expedited Partner Therapy.’ Healthcare providers are expected to follow up and ensure sexual partners of patients diagnosed with STD are treated. The goal is to effectively manage partners and avoid recurrence.
Comprehensive STD testing services are available in public health facilities. Some of these facilities include the Southside Health Center, on Hanna avenue 935 affiliated with Planned Parenthood of Indiana and Kentucky, and the Barrington Health and Dental Centre on Raymond street Indianapolis.
Even though there are some community clinics that might offer free STD testing and treatment services, the facilities may experience long queues and you might have to wait for long hours to be served. Additionally, you might not be allowed to see doctors on site because they operate on tight schedules.
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.

Several at-home STD options and public testing locations can cost up to $250, with most on the higher end, depending on the brand and type of testing. Public testing fees also vary based on income and welfare eligibility.
With private testing, you may save money on a low-cost comprehensive 10-test panel that tests for the most common bacterial and viral STDs in the United States.
