The CDC2 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.
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.
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.
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.

Health officials are worried about the rising number of primary and secondary Syphilis diagnoses. While high Chlamydia and Gonorrhea rates were expected, especially since these sexually transmitted diseases have been steadily increasing nationwide, the growing number of Syphilis cases is surprising.
Between 2005 and 2014 the number of p/s Syphilis diagnoses rose from 122 to 396. The majority of diagnoses were in older men, and statistics show that there is also a large number who had multiple STDs. Some of the other statistics recently released include;
With these statistics health officials agree that it is more important than ever for everyone to get tested regularly.

While it is not uncommon for public school systems to use the abstinence only sexual education program, the city of Gilbert has taken it a step further. Not only does the city school system only teach that abstinence is the “best” way to prevent pregnancy and STDs in its limited sexual education program, it has now placed stickers on high school biology books in an attempt to limit the amount of scientific information students receive about their reproductive systems.
With the advent of this new program health officials are seeing teen pregnancy and STD rates soar in students, and unfortunately expect these numbers to continue to rise. Regular Herpes testing in Gilbert can help stop it in high schools. Regular HIV testing in Gilbert is especially important, especially considering the lack of sexual education.
It should be noted that Gilbert is part of Maricopa county which includes a large prison population who also has a high rate of STDs. The inmate turnover rate is extremely high. Without regular STD testing recently released inmates will only continue to add to the growing problem.
Many residents are also afraid of running into a friend or family member at one of the clinics, and prefer to ignore the problem instead of getting tested.
Other demographical factors that are contributing to the increasing number of reported STDs are age and gender. Teens and young adults make up the majority of reported STDs and statistics show that these numbers are increasing every year.
HIV and mobile STD testing will answer any questions you might have about your status, but your privacy isn’t guaranteed. Local STI clinics are fast and affordable. You can also remain anonymous. Your results will be delivered discreetly, typically on the same or next day. Once you’re finished, you’ll truly be able to appreciate the area’s scenic beauty.
