Introduction

What are the STI test options in Alexandria,LA?

Health officials in central Louisiana are worried about the state’s STD rates. In 2016, Louisiana ranked third in the nation for HIV rates and first for primary and secondary syphilis, a disease that was under control in the US a short decade ago.

It made a comeback because of decreased condom use, especially after the AIDS scare of the ‘80s abated. Health officials are using awareness parades as tools to get people into clinics for testing and to convince sexually active people of the importance of using protection.

In 2016, Rapides Parish had an HIV prevalence rate of 461.1 per 100K people, under the Louisiana rate of 517.8. The same year, Rapides Parish’s chlamydia rate was 791.6 per 100K people, well above Louisiana’s rate of 679.3. The parish’s gonorrhea rate was 294.4. The primary and secondary syphilis rate was 18.2, above Louisiana’s rate of 16.1.

You can be tested for STDs at Rapides Primary Health Care Center on Willow Glen River Rd. At least one nonprofit in the area provides free STD testing, but there may be a wait. The Alexandria Women’s Center on Masonic Dr offers STI testing and also offers the HPV vaccine.

Sexual Health Education

STD Testing and Sexual Health Education in Alexandria, LA

Since the early 1990’s middle and high schools in Alexandria introduced the abstinence only as the only sure means of preventing STDS and unwanted pregnancies. This was to counter the alarming increase of HIV infection in the city. With the current situation of STD infection in the city, the health community has held onto the abstinence only along with other sex education programs to mostly help the sexually active age between the age of 14-29. Being the hard hit age by almost all types of STDs, interventions to educate them on sexuality is one of the best ways to reduce STD infection rates.

With the increased spread of STDs and most notably Chlamydia and Gonorrhea in the city, legislators are now seriously debating on legalizing comprehensive sexual education in middle and high schools. Some of the legislators are referring the lack of comprehensive education in middle and high schools as child abuse. The call for sex education in schools is demanding and looks set in the near future. Some of the schools have gradually been teaching comprehensive sex education and it has proved to be effective, with parents allowed to opt out their children from these classes.

This is taking the fight against STDs to another level as most locals have now rallied behind the introduction of comprehensive sexual education. The residents of the city have enlightened on the need for sexual education from body developments, physical changes, refusal attributes, use of condoms, and the general sex education. This has

Outreach programs have also played a big role in sensitizing the locals on sex education. This is done through University students and non governmental organisations. Through exhibitions on condom usage and forms of contraception use, most locals are now aware of means of protecting themselves from STDs.

Coupled with poverty and social crimes like rapes which was reported to have 18 cases per 100, 000 people according to a 2014 research.
