Early syphilis has the least number of infections as compared to other STDs. The department noted a steady trend when it recorded 151 cases at a percent rate of 10.5 per 100,000 population in 2018 and 151 counts at a prevalence rate of 10.9 in the previous year.
In 2018, the department recorded 786 new gonorrhea cases at a prevalence rate of 56.4, a relatively higher figure than the 760 counts at a percentage rate of 55.4 reported in 2017.
The annual chlamydia statistics as of 2018 stood at 5,127 cases at a rate of 368.4 per 100,000. That was a slight increase from the 4,917 counts recorded in 2017 at a prevalence rate of 352.2
The health department of Suffolk County in conjunction with The Office of Health Education provides sex education to teenagers and adults across the county to combat the spread of STDs in the region. It focuses on transmission and prevention methods as well as encouraging individuals to take charge of their lives.
Planned Parenthood - Huntington Health Center and Northport Comprehensive care are some clinics near the Greenlawn area that provide confidential STD screening.
Some individuals may qualify for free STD testing, but a doctor’s consultation might be an extra charge, and walk-in options might not exist.
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.
