A Title X tag flags centers funded for confidential family-planning services; confirm current participation when you call.

Herpes Testing Sits Alongside the Standard Four

Skipping herpes from a clinic's panel means a second appointment, a separate lab, and a gap where an active infection goes unaddressed while you wait. Presbyterian Medical Services includes herpes testing in the same visit that covers gonorrhea, chlamydia, syphilis, and HIV. One appointment closes that gap.

Spanish-Speaking Care Without a Go-Between

For someone navigating STI care without an established primary provider, and whose first language is Spanish, the ability to ask questions, understand results, and discuss treatment directly in Spanish at Presbyterian Medical Services means nothing gets lost between the visit and the follow-through.

Reading these numbers: reported case rates only count infections that were actually tested for and diagnosed, so they track local screening effort as much as true spread: a higher rate can reflect more testing, a lower one less. Either way, most STIs cause no symptoms, so treat the figures above as context rather than a verdict, and test on the CDC's schedule regardless of how your area looks.

Pregnant or planning to be? Congenital syphilis is the fastest-rising STI: what to test, and when

Congenital syphilis, passed from parent to baby in pregnancy, is the fastest-rising STI in the country. U.S. cases climbed from 2,163 in 2020 to 3,882 in 2023. It is almost entirely preventable: the CDC recommends a syphilis test at the first prenatal visit, and every clinic and lab listed for Catron County tests for syphilis.

Confidentiality & consent in New Mexico Minor consent and partner treatment (EPT) under state law, plus how to test privately

Two things that actually depend on New Mexico law: who can consent, and whether partners can be treated without their own visit. Everything else about testing privately is the same nationwide (see below).

Can a minor consent on their own?

In New Mexico, a minor of any age can consent to confidential STI testing and treatment on their own, no parental permission is required.

Can my partner be treated too? (EPT)

New Mexico permits Expedited Partner Therapy (EPT): if you test positive for chlamydia or gonorrhea, your provider can give you medication (or a prescription) to pass to your partner, no separate exam or appointment needed for them.

Keeping a test private works the same in every state. Whether an STD test shows on insurance (the EOB), how to test anonymously, and self-pay options that leave no insurance trail don’t change by location.
