Life Savers Emergency Room Makes Testing For STDs Easy And Confidential

Houston, Texas Aug 9, 2022 (Issuewire.com) - Houston-based Life Savers Emergency Room is making the process of testing for sexually transmitted diseases easy and confidential, to encourage more people to know their status, and get the necessary treatment they may require. Although it is common knowledge that sexually active adults need to get regularly tested for sexually transmitted diseases, the stigma and shame associated with STDs often make many people nervous about making inquiries into their sexual health.

The majority of adults today mostly only present themselves for testing when they are pressed with discomforting symptoms such as pain during urination, rashes, itching, or abnormal discharge from the genital area. And while the presence of any of those symptoms indicates the likelihood of there being an infection, many STDs and STIs can thrive quietly in a host and get passed around without presenting any symptoms.

According to statistics from the World Health Organisation, more than 1 million STIs are acquired from unprotected sex every day. In 2020, the number of new infections was estimated to be 374 million, with chlamydia accounting for 129 million new cases, gonorrhoea for 82 million, syphilis for 7.1 million, and trichomoniasis for 156 million new cases

Through its state-of-the-art on-site testing facilities, Life Savers Emergency Room provides reliable and discreet emergent sexually transmitted infection assessment and treatment, for a wide range of STDs, including Chlamydia, Gonorrhea, Genital herpes, Syphilis, and HIV. The clinic believes that by providing such essential services affordably and confidentially, more folks will be encouraged to seek appropriate medical help concerning their sexual health.

"We understand that STD testing can be a sensitive issue so we maintain the highest standards of privacy and confidentiality throughout the entire process," says Dr. Foyé Ikyaator, medical director of Life Savers ER.
