#3 of 23 Wyoming counties for chlamydia, among the very highest in the state
| Infection | Natrona County | Wyoming | United States |
|---|---|---|---|
| Chlamydia | 452.8 362 cases ▲ 45% | 313.2 | 492.2 |
| Gonorrhea | 75.1 60 cases ▲ 78% | 42.3 | 179.5 |

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.
Between 2020 and 2023 in Natrona County, chlamydia has fallen from 559.1 to 452.8 per 100,000 (19%), gonorrhea has fallen from 97.6 to 75.1 per 100,000 (23%), and P&S syphilis has fallen from 7.5 to 2.5 per 100,000 (67%).

Community health context
Sources: CDC PLACES (ZIP), County Health Rankings, CDC/ATSDR SVI, HRSA HPSA, HRSA MUA/P, Neighborhood Atlas ADI. Lower insurance coverage, fewer routine checkups, and a thin primary-care ratio all raise the value of low-cost public clinics and at-home testing in Natrona County.
Local HIV snapshot
Natrona County HIV care continuum (2021)
Natrona County recorded 0 new HIV diagnoses per 100,000 (2021), against 4.2 statewide and 13.7 nationally. Among Natrona County residents living with HIV, 87% are in care · 80.4% are virally suppressed. Early, routine testing is what moves these numbers: it is the entry point to PrEP, treatment, and viral suppression.
Sources: AIDSVu (Emory/Gilead) · CDC AHEAD · CDC AtlasPlus · CDC NCHHSTP AtlasPlus (county care continuum). The CDC recommends everyone aged 13–64 test for HIV at least once: every lab and clinic listed above offers HIV testing, and free rapid HIV testing is available at a local health department.
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 Natrona County tests for syphilis.

Data & references
Local context
Castle Rock rises above Midwest, a natural marker visible across town and a gathering point where neighbors cross paths. That same openness, the way people move through shared spaces, shapes how health care feels here. STI testing in and around Midwest draws on both local clinics and regional resources listed on this page. For young adults in particular, confidentiality during screening carries real weight in a place where social circles overlap and word travels.
Testing remains straightforward: a conversation with a provider, samples collected privately, results returned to you alone. The Salt Creek Museum and other community landmarks anchor Midwest's identity, but health decisions often happen quietly, away from the public eye. Clinics serving the area understand that a person seeking STI testing may have reasons (medical, personal, relational) that feel urgent and private. Routine screening is neither rare nor shameful; it's how people stay informed about their own bodies and protect their partners.
Access to testing here reflects Wyoming's geography and Natrona County's resources. Appointments can be scheduled confidentially, and results are protected by law. Whether you're new to the area or long rooted in Midwest, testing is available without judgment, and the choice to get screened is entirely yours.

Two things that actually depend on Wyoming 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).
In Wyoming, a minor of any age can consent to confidential STI testing and treatment on their own, no parental permission is required.
Wyoming 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.
