Mequon city has a long-standing struggle with STDs in teens and young people such that 1 in 5 has contracted a sexually transmitted disease. Africa Americans are the hardest hit accounting up to 50% of all new infections in the region.
According to the Wisconsin Sexually Transmitted Disease Surveillance Report of 2017, Ozaukee county where Mequon city sits reported 843 cases of chlamydia, 70 cases of gonorrhea and 52 cases of syphilis among the 20 to 24 year olds. For the teenager between 15 and 19 years, 527 cases of chlamydia and none for both syphilis and gonorrhea were reported.
Unprotected sex has teenage pregnancy and high STD rates as the only possible outcomes. Resources have been channeled into both STD control and prevention in order to curb this silent epidemic.
According to the Center for Disease Control and Prevention, Wisconsin State has failed in ensuring all young and sexually active persons are out of danger of contracting any sexually transmitted diseases. However, there are prevention and control efforts that has the community, schools, and healthcare providers as stakeholders.
There are many STD testing centers in Mequon you can visit or booking for screening. Planned Parenthood of Wisconsin based along Roosevelt road in Kenosha is one public center to consider.
Some clinics within this locality might offer free STD testing, but you may experience delay in service delivery since the facilities have long ques and the doctors might not be available. Besides, the medical facilities might need you to produce some credentials to verify your area of residency to qualify for low-cost services.
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.
