Cleveland, TX, is a small suburb in the Houston metro, and Liberty County under assault from rising STD infections. The numbers are risingโchlamydia, gonorrhea, and syphilis have increased from 2015 to 2020. The county reported 245 chlamydia cases in 2015; in 2020, it had 61 gonorrhea infections. By 2020, it had 118. It doesn't get better with syphilis. The area had no primary and secondary syphilis diagnoses in 2015. In 2020, the county reported six new infections.
Public health officials are working hard to reduce the spread of STDs by encouraging all sexually active people in the area, regardless of age, sex, or sexual orientation, to seek regular STD testing.
STD testing is available at several Cleveland, TX, and Liberty County locations. Many offer treatment and follow-up care, as well.
One option is Lone Start Family Health Center. The Grangerland Family Health Center at 13905 Grangerland Rd in Conroe, TX, offers comprehensive STI screenings.
Another site is the Saint Hope Foundation's clinic at the Conroe Community Health Center at 1414 S. Fraizer.
The Neudorf Infectious Diseases Clinic at 601 River Pointe Dr. also offers screenings in Conroe, TX.
Some clinics offer free STD testing. While these seem like a great idea to save money and get help, there are some downsides. For example, many free sites have limited monthly testing dates, so you must wait longer to get tested and get results. Also, the nature of these locations may be harder to keep the reason for your visit private.
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.
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.
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.
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
