Peabody is a city full of culture, with many museums telling the story of its rich history. Unfortunately there are also a rising number of people contracting sexually transmitted diseases.
In 2012 there were 176 reported cases of Gonorrhea in Essex County, by 2016 the number reached 356 and has continued to climb. There were 2,637 cases of Chlamydia in 2016, a figure that has shocked health officials into action.
In 2015 the Governor of Massachusetts declared that there was an opioid crisis in the state. This has led to an increase in diseases that are transmitted intravenously in Essex County, with 350 people dying in 2016 as a result of the Hepatitis C virus. Many diseases that can be contracted this way can also be caught during sexual contact, raising the risk factor for sexually active people in Peabody.
The department for health in Essex County has put out a warning to residents in Peabody about the risks of neglecting regular STD checks.
There is a local organisation in Peabody who offers services such as free STD testing, educational leaflets, contraception and confidential advice on the telephone. Making appointments with clinics who don’t charge for services can often be difficult due to inconsistent opening times and unavailability of doctors.
To get fast, confidential treatment you can visit the North Shore Community Health Incorporated on Foster St. You must book an appointment but there are usually same-day options available.
You could also make your way to the Health Quarters at the Cummings Centre in Beverly. They do their best to accommodate walk-in visits and are open late on Monday and Tuesday.
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 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.

Some STD testing clinics offer same-day walk-in options without an appointment. Below are nearby preferred locations that offer this option.
The cost of STD testing depends on whether you select private, public, or at-home testing, as well as the type of test(s) you need.
Several at-home STD options and public testing locations can cost up to $250, with most on the higher end, depending on the brand and type of testing. Public testing fees also vary based on income and welfare eligibility.
With private testing, you may save money on a low-cost comprehensive 10-test panel that tests for the most common bacterial and viral STDs in the United States.
