Sachse, TX, a suburb of Dallas, that's located in Collin and Dallas counties, is experiencing an STD outbreak that's not showing signs of slowing down.
Chlamydia diagnoses are rising. Dallas County reported 17,280 in 2014, and in 2017, it had nearly 20,000 new cases.
Gonorrhea cases are growing fast. The area had 5,713 in 2014, and it jumped to 7,105 in 2017.
Syphilis is also expanding with 1,547 in 2014, and 2,372 in 2017.
In 2017, about 18,000 people were living with HIV in Dallas County, and more than 60% of all new diagnoses were in patients under 35 years of age. Infections among this age group have been increasing steadily over the past nine years.
State and county public health officials are urging all people that are sexually active to help prevent the spread of STDs and with regular screenings.
There are over a dozen health centers in Sachse and nearby that provide comprehensive STD testing. Many locations include preventive care, treatment, and follow-up services.
The Texas Infectious Disease Institute offers screenings on the corner of E President George Bush Hwy and E Renner Rd in Richardson. This clinic is accessible by public transportation.
Another option is the Garland Public Health Department on the corner of Carver Dr and Hopkins St in Garland.
Premier Independent Physicians of Rockwall also provides STI services on W Ralph Hall Pkwy.
Some clinics might offer free STD testing. These locations may ask for proof of income and county sites could request proof of address. Additionally, comprehensive screenings may not be an option.
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.
