Why test

Why is STD testing important?

Sexually transmitted infections (STIs, also called STDs) are common, and many cause no symptoms, especially early on. Without treatment, some can lead to serious problems, such as infertility, long-term pelvic pain or damage to the heart, brain and other organs, and they can be passed to partners.

Testing is quick, and many STDs are easily treated or managed. At Texas Primary Care Associates, your provider recommends tests based on your symptoms, sexual history and national screening guidelines, and explains results and treatment in a private, judgment-free visit.

  • Confidential visit with your provider
  • Urine tests, blood tests and swabs as needed
  • Treatment, including antibiotics, when an infection is found
  • Advice on partner treatment and prevention

Who should get tested for STDs?

Anyone who is sexually active can get an STD. National guidelines recommend regular screening for some groups and testing any time you have symptoms, a new partner or a partner with an STD. Your provider will recommend tests based on your situation.

Common screening recommendations

  • HIV testing at least once for everyone ages 15 to 65, and more often with ongoing risk
  • Yearly chlamydia and gonorrhea testing for sexually active women 24 and younger, and older women with risk factors
  • Hepatitis C testing at least once for adults 18 to 79
  • Syphilis testing for people at higher risk
  • Testing during pregnancy, through your OB-GYN

Signs you should get tested now

  • Burning when you urinate, or unusual discharge
  • Sores, bumps or blisters on or around the genitals, mouth or anus
  • Pain during sex or pelvic pain
  • A partner who has tested positive for an STD
  • Unprotected sex with a new partner

Protecting yourself and your partners

Use condoms every time, limit the number of partners and get tested with new partners. If you are treated for an infection, avoid sex until you and your partners finish treatment and your provider says it is safe. Some infections need a retest a few months later.
