Individual STD Tests available in Pleasanton, 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.
If you think you may need to have STD testing performed, call our Health Testing Services. We have highly trained nurses available to speak with you over the phone and answer any questions you may have. They will ask questions to find about your situation to determine which if any STD tests you may need. This is just the first step that our nurses will help you through. If you need testing, they are available to counsel you regarding your test results and can guide you as to what treatment options are best for you to follow.
One of our goals is to provide privacy and confidentiality to our clients. Unlike a doctor’s office or clinic, we keep your test results private. They do not become part of your permanent health record, but are sent directly to you. No one else will find out the results unless you tell them. Many of our clients choose to test under an alias and we are fine with that. Another benefit of choosing us is that we will not require you to undergo a physical exam when being tested for an STD. Most of the free clinics and doctors will subject you to a physical as part of the testing process. When you go to the lab for the actual test, your privacy is still ensured as we only work with labs that offer multiple services. This means that no one will be able to figure out what kind of test you are there for. We understand that waiting for results can be difficult, so we offer a quick service. Most people will receive their blood test results within three days of taking the test.
