The majority of STD reported cases in Tennessee are found in the Nashville-Davidson-Murfreesboro-Franklin metropolitan area. In fact, this area accounts for one-fourth of the reported chlamydia cases in the state and one-third of the reported gonorrhea and syphilis cases in the state.
According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention 2016 records, Williamson County, including Franklin, TN, had 385 reported cases of chlamydia, 47 reported cases of gonorrhea, and 9 reported cases of syphilis.
While STDs can affect people of all ages, studies show that the majority of these cases involve adolescents and young adults that are between 15 and 29 years old.
The Tennessee Department of Health records show that reported cases of HIV have steadily increased from 127 reported cases in 2016 to 128 cases in 2017 to 137 reported cases in 2018.
There are a few facilities in Franklin, TN that offer STD testing, including the Tennessee Department of Health – Franklin Clinic located right on West Main Street.
If you travel north into Nashville, you will find numerous additional clinics that offer STD and HIV testing, including Lentz Public Health Center, Planned Parenthood – Nashville Health Center, Minority AIDS Outreach, Nashville Cares, and Community Quick Care Nashville. Many of these clinics are located on Charlotte Avenue or just off I-440 and Murfreesboro Pike.
While some of these facilities offer free STD testing, you may need to meet income and resident eligibility requirements. In addition, some centers only accept walk-in appointments, which could lead to long wait 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.
