Individual STD Tests available in Daly City, CA:
HIV Blood Test
The Centers for Disease Control have stated that of the 1.2 million Americans who are believed to be infected with HIV, just under a quarter of them do not know it. HIV, a transmittable disease, is frequently passed from person to person via unprotected sexual encounters, breast milk, an infected woman giving birth to her child and the sharing of used needles.
Recent Exposure STD Testing
If there is a chance you have recently been exposed to a possible STD, seek testing as soon as you are able. A recent exposure STD test offers results even if the exposure was believed to have been as few as 28 days prior. Testing is strongly recommended in order to get the medical attention you need right away and to ease your worries.
Hepatitis B Blood Test
The prognosis of Hepatitis B can vary from a short illness lasting a couple of weeks to a more difficult and chronic version lasting a lifetime. This contagious disease is commonly transmitted via sexual contact among an infected person to another or from the sharing of used needles and syringes.
Herpes Simplex Virus (I.II, IgG) Blood Test
Genital herpes, an STD, is the result of an infection by two different kinds of the herpes simplex virus (HSV). Herpes simplex virus 1 (HSV-1) commonly causes oral herpes (an infection of the lips and mouth) but can also cause genital herpes, as has recently been shown among groups of sexually active young people. However, herpes simplex virus 2 (HSV-2) is still the leading cause of genital herpes. In both cases genital herpes is transmitted via direct contact with the sores or body secretions of a carrier.
Syphilis – Rapid Plasma Reagin (RPR) Blood Test
A common STD, syphilis, must not be left untreated or it could lead to the death of the infected person. This disease is passed from the infected person to another through sexual means like oral and penetrative sexual contact. It is not always easy to detect as some of its symptoms may be shared with other diseases. Antibiotics can treat the sufferer in order to prevent some of the most grave side effects like brain and heart damage.
Hepatitis C Blood Test
Even without the presence of the symptoms of illness, hepatitis C can wreak damage through a person's body, particularly in their liver. Reportedly, the disease has infected about 200 million people across the planet. The disease spreads from the infected to others through exchanges of bodily fluids. Early treatment is possible and is necessary in order to prevent serious liver damage.
Chlamydia Test
As a disease that generally shows no symptoms, chlamydia can generally only be found through an STD test. Chlamydia is transferred from an infected person to another via sexual contact like vaginal intercourse. The more sexual partners a person has, the higher chance that person has of becoming infected. It is the most frequently reported bacterial STD in the United States of America.
Gonorrhea Test
A large percentage of gonorrhea carriers (50% of women, 10% of men) do not show any noticeable symptoms of this particular disease. Because of that, gonorrhea – a bacteria which thrives in the reproductive tract, urethra, anus, eyes, mouth, or throat – often goes undetected. This can lead to serious concerns if the disease is not found and treated.
Wondering if you need to be tested for an STD can be scary. However, our nurses can answer your questions and help put you at ease. Because there are so many STD tests available, our nurses will take time to find out your specific situation and help you determine what test or tests will be best for you. The nurses are also available to help you understand the results of your tests. If you need treatment, they will guide you through the options to help you decide what is best for you.
We recognize the need for privacy in these kinds of situations. Because of this, your test results are kept confidential and are not made part of your health record. If you were to go to a doctor’s office or clinic for testing, your STD test results would be on your medical record forever. A doctor’s office or clinic will also encourage you to have a physical exam, something that we don’t require as part of our testing process. In recognizing privacy, we also allow clients to have their testing done under an alias. We take the privacy issue one step further by having the blood tests performed at laboratories that offer multiple services. This way, when you walk through their doors, no one can figure out what kind of test you are there for. Once your test is completed, you don’t have to wait forever for the results. In most cases you will know your test results in two to three days.
