Lakeland, TN, a city in Shelby County, reported a decline in HIV infections from 6,422 in 2017 to 5,731 in 2018.
Chlamydia reported the highest cases among all STDs. The cases rose from 7,871 at a rate of 842.2 in 2016 to 9,004 at a rate of 961.0 by the end of 2017.
Gonorrhea cases increased for several years consecutively. The health surveillance reports showed 2,163 cases in 2014 to 2,582 in 2015 and 2,934 in 2016, followed by 3,694 in 2017.
Syphilis cases were recorded at 532 at a rate of 56.8 in 2015. The infections became rampant in the following year where they rose to 693 and later dropped to 590 at 63.0 in 2017. More infections were notable among the male population, especially the MSMs.
The Shelby County Health Department has undertaken several measures to reduce HIV/STD infections, including promoting early STD healthcare-seeking behaviour, sexual health education, and advising on treatment compliance for the infected and affected persons. Other measures include distributing national guidelines in a form that can be understood and used without special additional training and making health centers accessible and acceptable for patients.
You may access HIV/STD services at Planned Parenthood, Urgent Team Walk-in Urgent Care – Bartlett, RedMed Urgent Clinic of Arlington, and Saint Francis Hospital-Bartlett.
Lakeland, TN, may have several clinics where you may access free STD testing even though the tests might not be comprehensive, and walk-in options may 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.

Some STD testing clinics offer same-day walk-in options without an appointment. Below are nearby preferred locations that offer this option.
The cost of STD testing depends on whether you select private, public, or at-home testing, as well as the type of test(s) you need.
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.
