Individual STD Tests available in Palo Cedro, CA:
HIV Blood Test
The Centers for Disease Control has stated that nearly1.2 million
people in the United States have HIV and that a quarter of them are not aware of
their infection. The spread of this disease, generally comes from the use of contaminated
needles, unprotected sex, breast milk from an infected woman, and an infected woman
transmitting it to her child.
Recent Exposure STD Testing
Early testing is possible if you believe you may have become
infected with a STD. Recent Exposure STD Testing
is available to those who believe they were exposed at least 28 days beforehand.
Early detection through recent exposure STD testing can be critical to your continued
health and mental well-being.
Hepatitis B Blood Test
Usually, the contagious disease known as Hepatitis B is spread
through sexual contact or sharing contaminated needles. This illness can cause a
mild sickness lasting less than a month to a far more severe version lasting a lifetime.
Herpes Simplex Virus (I.II, IgG) Blood
Test
Direct contact with the sores and bodily fluids of an infected
individual can lead to the transmittal of genital herpes, an STD caused by infection
of two types of the herpes simplex virus. Herpes simplex virus 1 (HSV-1), while
usually only causing oral herpes (a disease of the lips and mouth also called “cold
sores” or “fever blisters”), has recently begun to inflict sexually active young
people with genital herpes. In the past, only contact with herpes simplex virus
2 (HSV-2) has caused genital herpes. Herpes simplex virus can be spread by contacting
the infected areas (sores and bodily fluids) of an infected individual.
Syphilis – Rapid Plasma Reagin (RPR)
Blood Test
Commonly transmitted from an infected person through sex, syphilis
is a well known STD. While its effects can cause fatal damage with no hope of recovery
to many important organs of the body, it is a treatable disease. It can be treated
through penicillin and other antibiotics.
Hepatitis C Blood Test
Hepatitis C is treatable disease that will cause no harm to
the liver if detected early enough. Nearly 200 million across the globe are infected
with this disease, and many do not even know it as it is asymptomatic. The disease
is spread from infected individuals to others via the exchange of bodily fluids.
Chlamydia Test
Chlamydia is an STD that is not easy to detect as it presents
no symptoms. It can, however, be detected through early STD testing. The disease
is transferred via sexual contact and a person's risk elevates as they have more
sexual partners. This is the most common bacterial STD in the country.
Gonorrhea Test
Gonorrhea is a very dangerous bacteria. It grows in the reproductive
tract, urethra, anus, mouth, throat, and eyes of its victims, and often does not
get treated. Ten percent of male hosts, and fifty percent of female hosts, show
no symptoms whatsoever. This can lead to harsh consequences if the disease is not
treated.
Our nurses are available to talk to you on the phone and tell you about the different
STD tests we perform. They are there to listen to you and answer any questions you
may have. Depending on your situation, they will recommend which test or combination
of tests for STDs you should have done. Our nurses are also available for you after
you receive your test results to answer any questions you have about the results
and regarding any treatment you may need.
When you have an STD test at a doctor’s office or a free clinic, these test results
become a permanent part of your health record. However, when testing is performed
at our Health Testing Centers, your results remain confidential. You may even choose
to use an alias when having your test done. The test results are sent to the patient
and are completely private. The only people who know the results are those you choose
to share them with. Because our labs perform more than just STD testing, no one
will be able to guess why you are there. Another benefit of using our services is
that no physical exam is required. This is not the case if you have the testing
done at your doctor’s office or clinic. After taking the STD blood test, you can
expect to receive your results in two to three days.
