In the state alone there were 218,728 chlamydia cases, 75,372 gonorrhea cases, and 13,719 early syphilis cases reported last year. Riverside County, where Temecula sits, saw drastic increases in STD rates between 2011 and 2015 when chlamydia cases rose by 12%, syphilis cases rose by 74%, and gonorrhea cases rose by 142% over those four years.
In 2017 Riverside County reported 255.5 new HIV cases per 100,000 residents and 384.2 new chlamydia cases per 100,000 residents.
The past two years seem to be witnessing a slow decrease in new STD cases in Riverside County, but maintaining that trend requires continued diligence that includes regular STD testing for all sexually active persons.
From private and public clicis like Neighborhood HealthCare on Enterprise Circle to Riverside San Bernardino County Indian Health Incorporated on Pechanga Road, there are testing locations scattered throughout and around Temecula.
The California Department of Public Health has also rolled out the Sexually Transmitted Diseases Control Branch to help combat STD transmission, which often includes free STD testing for verified residents only that qualify. Through education, training, and assistance they’re helping to increase public awareness of risk and safe practices.
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.

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.

California has joined a few other states in passing legislation that requires all public schools to offer sexual education classes not based on abstinence or religious beliefs to students in the 7th through 12th grades. The law, which went into effect at the start of 2016, was passed in response to the growing number of sexually transmitted diseases that were being reported each year.
In the few months since the classes have been implemented health officials are starting to notice decreasing numbers of students who report being pregnant. STD rates in some school districts have also started to decline, especially the students testing positive for Chlamydia. This is not to say that all sexually transmitted diseases will soon be under control, that they are taking positive steps.
The most important change in the new sex education program is that students are now able to discuss how STDs are spread, and learn how to effectively protect themselves. Students can also discuss their sexuality, and any questions and concerns can be addressed. The importance of regular Herpes testing in Temecula is also stressed, in hopes that this virus will no longer be prevalent. Regular HIV testing in Temecula is also an important subject, even though the number of residents infected each year is slowing down.
The city of Temecula has a diverse population that can also vary depending on the season. Migrant workers do travel through the region, and this can affect the STD rates at the time. Many of these workers haven’t been tested for a sexually transmitted disease, and since some do not display any immediate or noticeable symptoms it is not uncommon for them to not even realize that they are infected.
It is not just migrant workers who often test positive for a STD they didn’t know that they had, but it is also a common occurrence with full time residents. Even with the new sexual education programs in place, many people still do not understand that STDs can be transmitted through a variety of methods. It is this lack of knowledge that has helped STDs rise, and one of the main reasons that the current sexual education program has been expanded to include current and relevant information.
There is also a shortage of testing facilities in the city. The conservative beliefs of many residents also made it difficult for many centers to become established. While steps are being taken to help improve residents’ sexual health and teach them how to protect themselves from STDs, testing is still the best method of prevention.
Sexually transmitted diseases are a health issue for everyone in Temecula, regardless of race or age. These diseases can be easily passed and the good news is that you can find affordable STI testing near you. The testing is anonymous, unlike at a free HIV clinic, and your results will be sent to you privately.
