PrEP and PEP Prescribed Here, Not Sent Elsewhere

Plenty of STI clinics test and treat but stop short of prescribing HIV prevention medication, leaving patients to chase a separate provider. Maine Family Planning in Farmington prescribes both PrEP for ongoing prevention and PEP for post-exposure situations, keeping that care continuous rather than fragmented.

Herpes and Hepatitis Extend the Standard Panel

Maine Family Planning in Farmington runs rapid hepatitis C antibody testing, hepatitis B serology, and herpes testing alongside the core four. Meaning a single appointment covers infections rather than four. For anyone whose risk profile reaches beyond the baseline, that broader scope removes the need for a separate visit elsewhere.

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.

Confidentiality & consent in Maine

Minor consent and partner treatment (EPT) under state law, plus how to test privately

Two things that actually depend on Maine 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 Maine, 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)

Maine 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.
