Individual STD Tests available in Redding, CA:
HIV Blood Test
The escalation of the spread of HIV comes from infected women passing the disease to her unborn child at birth, sharing contaminated needles, breast milk from an infected woman and unprotected sexual contact. The Centers for Disease Control believe that approximatively 1.2 million people in the United States are infected with disease, and that 25% of them do not know they are infected.
Recent Exposure STD Testing
Do not delay testing if you believe you have been exposed to an STD. If the exposure was even as few as 28 days ago, you can take a recent exposure STD test to verify a possible infection. Fast results through the recent exposure STD test will give you comfort and help you make the best choices for your health.
Hepatitis B Blood Test
Hepatitis B, a contagious disease, has a range of symptoms from a weak illness lasting little over a month to a far more difficult illness lasting a lifetime. The disease can be spread through sexual activity with an infected person or sharing syringes with an infected person.
Herpes Simplex Virus (I.II, IgG) Blood Test
Genital herpes, a venereal disease, is caused by two kinds of herpes simplex virus (HSV). Oral herpes is also caused by the first strain, herpes simplex virus 1 (HSV-1). Herpes simplex virus 1 was once known to only cause oral herpes (also known as “cold sores” or “fever blisters”) but it has recently become known that it also causes genital herpes among sexually active young people. Herpes simplex virus 2 (HSV-2) is the more common cause of genital herpes. Regardless of the strain, herpes simplex virus is passed along by contact with the bodily fluids and sores of a carrier of the virus.
Syphilis – Rapid Plasma Reagin (RPR) Blood Test
A round of treatment of antibiotics can prevent the worst damage of syphilis, including fatal effects like irreparable brain damage. Syphilis is a sexually transmitted disease spread through various sexual means, including intercourse with an infected person. Its symptoms are varied and not easy to discern from other illnesses.
Hepatitis C Blood Test
Though hepatitis C is not asymptomatic for every infected person, it can be easy to miss early detection and thus early treatment. Those that do not get early treatment may face damage to their liver, including complete liver failure. It is thought that about 200 million people in the world have this condition which is commonly spread through bodily fluids.
Chlamydia Test
The most commonly reported bacterial STD in the United States is chlamydia, an asymptomatic illness. Most people will not know they have until a test is administered. The risk of infection is higher among those with a greater number of sexual partners. It can be passed through various types of sexual interaction, including oral, anal and vaginal sex.
Gonorrhea Test
A bacteria growing in the tracts and the cavities of the body (especially the reproductive tract), gonorrhea presents a serious risk to those who carry it. Its hosts often do not display warning signs that they have the disease, and so as many as 10% of men and 50% of women are at risk for the serious complications stemming from an out of control infection of gonorrhea.
Our nurses are just a phone call away and can talk to you about what STD testing services you may need. Because there are different tests available, they will ask questions about your situation to determine what STD test you should take. Our nurses are also there for you when you get the results from your testing. They are trained to explain these results and to guide you through any recommended treatments.
The biggest benefit we offer with our Health Testing Services over those offered by clinics or doctors is that of privacy. When you are tested, the results are for your eyes only and are not recorded on your permanent medical history. If you want, you can even use an alias when testing. Your privacy continues as you go to the lab for your STD blood tests. There are labs that only perform these kinds of tests, but we don’t use them because everyone knows what you are there for. Our lab locations offer a variety of medical testing, making it virtually impossible for anyone to determine why you are there. You should receive your test results within days of taking your test. Another benefit we offer is we do not require that you have a physical examination as part of your testing process.
