Between 2013 and 2017 Martin County where Palm City is located has seen a 31% rise in Chlamydia cases, an 18% increase in Gonorrhea cases and an astonishing 57% increase in Syphilis cases.
Martin County has also recorded increased HIV rates with 2016 recording a 4.6 rate and 2018 recording a 9.6 rate per 100000 people. There was a total of 356 Chlamydia cases in 2018 at a prevalence rate of 180 per 100000.
“The massive increase in STD rates is worrying. Some STDs can lead to serious health conditions such as infertility if left untreated. Using protection, getting tested and feeling empowered to ask questions are the key to overcoming this epidemic.” Karlette Peck, Health Officer for the Florida Department of Health in Martin County
The Florida Department of Health in Martin County urges residents of Palm City to get tested and know their STD status. They have done this through offering free testing outreach events for STDs, HIV and Hepatitis C. Teen clinics where teenagers can get their sexual concerns addressed are also available.
Palm City has numerous other public and private clinics where you can get tested. Some of the public clinics may offer free STD testing or low cost testing. However, long wait times and the fact that prescriptions for after test care might not be available if you’re tested positive are some of the disadvantages.
Some of the clinics include Florida Department of Health in Martin County Stuart Clinic which is a low cost clinic, Planned Parenthood of South East and North Florida Incorporated Martin County Health Center and Care Net Pregnancy Services of the Treasure Coast which is a pregnancy crisis center.
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.
