📞 Call Now for Confidential TestingRegular STD testing is an important part of sexual wellness for residents of Santa Cruz County, especially given our mix of college students, seasonal visitors, and long-term community members. Many STIs are asymptomatic — the CDC estimates roughly 1 in 5 Americans has an STI — so testing protects both your health and your partners. The CDC recommends routine screening for sexually active adults, annual checks for sexually active women under 25, and more frequent testing for people with multiple partners or those engaging in higher-risk activities. In Santa Cruz, where young adults from the University of California, Santa Cruz mingle with residents in downtown and beach neighborhoods, timely detection and treatment reduce complications like pelvic inflammatory disease, infertility, and chronic hepatitis. Regular STI screening also helps normalize sexual health conversations and reduce stigma; visiting a local sexual health clinic or ordering a confidential STD test is a proactive, responsible step. Rapid STD testing, private STD screening, and confidential STD tests with same-day results are available locally, making it easier to stay informed and healthy without judgment.
