Rates of sexually transmitted diseases are rising more rapidly in Maricopa County, AZ faster than national averages. In the past 5 years, rates have gone up 50% for all STDs.

Chlamydia is the most common STD, with more than 25,000 cases. According to Maricopa government statistics, chlamydia, gonorrhea and syphilis have been steadily increasing since 2012. The most disturbing trend is the rising number of infants being born with Syphilis in Maricopa County.

There are approximately 25,000 people with chlamydia in Maricopa County, and it is suspected that many more than that are not even aware that they have the disease.
If you are pregnant, getting tested is important for your baby’s health and your peace of mind. Maricopa County offers a number of public and private solutions for getting free and low-cost testing.
Low-cost testing is available at the County Department of Health during special testing events. The county partners with several private clinics around the county to provide these services. Costs vary, depending on the type test that is performed, but the hours of the clinic are limited and weekend hours are extremely limited.
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.
