What are the STI test options in Waco,TX?

Waco, Texas ranks as the 78th most sexually diseased state nationwide with a disease prevalence rate of 911.3 cases per 100,000 residents. This means that last year there were approximately 2,179 new STDs diagnosed in the city of Waco alone.

However, even amid the extremely high STD rates in Waco, by staying informed and practicing safe sex with regular STD testing, you and your partner can enjoy a happy and healthy sex life.

Only through outreach and prevention efforts will these rates decline. Across the state services are being deployed to help end the STD epidemic: greater funding, reduction of stigma, rapid testing, counseling services, partner notification services,ย  free STD testing and the implementation of PrEP clinics. Texas law requires minors to obtain parental consent for STD testing.

Waco has locations within the city and in surrounding areas, so whether you want to stay close to home or pair STD testing with other plans itโ€™s easy to do so. You can find a Family Health Center on Washington Avenue or Providence Drive, and thereโ€™s a Planned Parenthood of Greater Texas on Ross Avenue.

 

Reviewed by Our Medical Team
Your trusted source for comprehensive and unbiased STD testing locations, statistics, and resources. Backed by board-certified physicians and aligned with CDC guidelines, we're committed to providing accurate, up-to-date information to empower your health choices.

What STD tests do I need?

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.

When should I get tested?

The CDC2ย 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.ย 

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.

How are STD tests done?

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.

How fast do I get my results?

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.ย 

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.ย 

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.ย 

SaferSTD has researched and identified the most accredited and most reputable testing locations. Click here to find a preferred location near you.

What same-day testing locations are available in Waco, TX?

Some STD testing clinics offer same-day walk-in options without an appointment. Below are nearby preferred locations that offer this option.

How much will STD testing cost in Waco, TX?

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.ย 

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.ย 

SaferSTD has researched and identified reputable locations that offer upfront pricing without hidden fees. Click here to find a preferred location near you.

Sexual Health Education

STD Testing and Sexual Health Education in Waco, TX

 STD Testing Waco-TX

The independent school district in Waco does not have a comprehensive sexual education program, but instead relies on abstinence based curriculums to help protect students and young adults from the risk of unplanned pregnancies and STDs. Unfortunately this program does not cover the dangers of unprotected sex or that some STDs can be spread without having intercourse. While there are a few community outreach programs in the lower income neighborhoods, the consistently rising number of new STD infections every year show that a different approach is needed to protect the cityโ€™s teens and young adults.

While some parents and educators are comfortable with the abstinence based sex education curriculum, it is not enough to prevent the spread of some STDs. Not all sexually transmitted diseases display noticeable symptoms, and some can be spread without having intercourse. HIV testing in Waco is critical in detecting the disease early enough to begin treatment. Herpes testing in Waco is also important and can not only detect the disease, it can also help control the embarrassing cold sores.

Sexually Transmitted Diseases and Demographics in Waco, TX

The demographical makeup does influence its rate of STDs, and this does include the majority of Hispanic and African American families who are living below poverty in the city limits. The city is struggling with a vast divide among income and residents, and some neighborhoods in the downtown area are experiencing higher STD rates than other places. The main cause of the increase is the lack of education concerning the dangers associated with unprotected sex. Some of the areaโ€™s local health centers are implementing outreach programs in the lower income neighborhoods, but lack of trust and language barriers are making it difficult for officials to explain the importance of caring for your sexual health.

Better Sexual Health in Waco, TX

 STD Testing Waco, TX

Waco is surrounded by the Texas plains, and has the advantage of being centrally located between Austin and Dallas. With the Brazos River in the cityโ€™s backyard and the Rangerโ€™s baseball Hall of Fame there is plenty to keep residents occupied. Unfortunately the city is also experiencing a high rate of STDs.

While there are still health clinics in the city, many residents prefer to avoid the long lines and schedule a private STD test. This let you spend only a few minutes at the local clinic. In just a few minutes you’re finished, and still have time to enjoy the Brazos River Walk.
