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.

Within the state of Illinois, there has been an increase in Chlamydia, Gonorrhea, and Syphilis. There has also been an increase in HIV and AIDS. According to the State and County Specific HIV and AIDS Incidence and Prevalence Update as of March 2017 there were 108 new HIV cases and 34 new AIDS cases in Cook county. This is an increase of 22.7% for HIV cases and 11.7% for AIDS.
As of 2014 the projected growth rate for Chlamydia cases was 413.9 per a 100,000 population. The rate for non-Hispanic Blacks was ten times higher than for non-Hispanic Whites and 3 times greater than the rate for Hispanics. The rates were also highest among 20-24-year-old females. However, when compared to the rates in Chicago and the United States overall, the growth rate for Chlamydia cases was lower.
The rate of growth for Gonorrhea decreased from 2014 to 2015 within Cook County and was lower than the projected outcome. The projected outcome was 257.0 per a 100,000 population and the actual outcome was 213.0 per a 100,000 population. The highest rates were in females aged 20-24 years. The rate for non-Hispanic Blacks was 25 times higher than the rate for non-Hispanic Whites and almost 10 times higher than the rate for Hispanics.
The growth rate for Primary and Secondary Syphilis has remained somewhat even since 2005, growing very little. The rate of growth was 3.0 per a 100,000 population. 88% of the cases were male.

Hoffman Estates benefits from being near several educational resources pertaining to STI’s and HIV/AIDS. One such resource is the McKinley Health Center which is located within the city of Urbana. While Urbana is a few hours away, they offer workshops as a service to those wishing to hold them. They also offer resources online, walk in appointments, and condom distribution.
Also located about 30 minutes away is Angles for Sexual Health, Identity, and Education. They provide health care for youth up to the age of 25, education for children ages 5-12, and a variety of activities and services for teens who identify as questioning, transgender, lesbian, gay, or bisexual. They also provide clinics and counseling and have a Pride Youth Program for LGBTQ teens. Their Health Education gives fact based information to Junior and High school students.
Within the local system, students are facing the same issue as in other schools across the country. However, educators in Illinois seem to be more determined to teach medically sound facts than those in some other states. In August of 2013 Bill HB 2675 was passed. This piece of legislation prohibits abstinence only education within public schools. If schools decide to not include comprehensive information they can choose to not have a sexual education course at all.
Within Hoffman estates, the most accessible place to get free condoms is The Open Door Health Center which is located in Elgin, Illinois. Elgin is a 23-minute drive from Hoffman Estates. This health center also provides health education pertaining to sexual well-being.
Within the city of Hoffman Estates there is an interesting juxtaposition in comparison to the rest of Cook County. All the data that pertains to Hoffman Estates is opposite to that data for the county. For example, the Non-Hispanic Blacks make up nearly 20% of the population of Cook County, while only about 3% of the population in Hoffman Estates. The poorest demographic of Cook County is Non-Hispanic Blacks (36%), while the poorest demographic of Hoffman Estates is Non-Hispanic Whites.
There is also a significant difference in the poverty rate itself. The poverty rate within Hoffman Estates is around 3.5% while it is around 16% in the county. However, the employment rate is close in comparison for both counties.
Also, interesting to note it the fact that P&S Syphilis cases did not increase by much within Hoffman Estates, but did increase within the county. In 2015 the amount of cases nearly doubled from 69 cases to 146. 90% of the cases were male and 57% were Non-Hispanic Blacks. 40% of those infected were aged between 20 and 29 years old.
One of the major factors that could possible play a part in the amount of those infected within Hoffman Estates is the amount of commuting that occurs. Most of the residents commute up to 30 minutes for work. This could possibly play a part as to why the numbers are lower within Hoffman Estates as opposed to Cook County. Residents of Hoffman Estates are interacting with individuals outside their town.
One location is the Renz Addiction Counseling Center. There are three locations, but the closest one is in Elgin. They offer HIV testing and counseling. To make an appointment or seek advice as to how to proceed with testing, individuals are encouraged to call or email the center. They accept most major insurances.
The closest Planned Parenthood is in Aurora, which is about a 45-minute drive south. They are opened during the week. They offer testing for all major STI’s and have counseling available. They accept many major insurances including Aetna, Cigna, and Blue Cross Blue Shield.

Finally, ARCPoint Labs in Elk Grove Village has testing facilities and is about a 19-minute drive from Hoffman Estates. Onsite and mobile testing is available as well as call ahead appointments. Aside from testing for individual STI’s, they have two comprehensive panel packages.
