Syphilis is a sexually transmitted infection that can have serious health consequences if left untreated. According to the CDC, anyone who is sexually active should consider getting tested for syphilis. This is particularly important for those who have multiple sexual partners, are men who have sex with men, are living with HIV, or are pregnant.
Early detection and treatment of syphilis are crucial for preventing serious health complications. If left untreated, syphilis can lead to damage to the heart, brain, and other organs. It can also increase the risk of HIV transmission and, in pregnant women, can lead to miscarriage, stillbirth, or congenital syphilis in the newborn.
There are several urgent care and walk-in clinics in and around Beverly Hills that offer syphilis testing. For instance, 1st Choice Urgent Care in Southfield and Medcare Urgent Care in Redford Charter Township are highly rated and offer same-day and next-day appointments through Solv’s website and mobile app.
Your primary care provider can also test for syphilis. If you don't have a primary care provider, Solv can help you find one in Beverly Hills or nearby areas like Franklin, Birmingham, or Southfield.
There are also community health centers in Oakland County that offer free or low-cost STD testing. These centers are a valuable resource, especially for those without insurance or with limited financial means.
At-home testing kits for syphilis are another option. These kits can be ordered online, used at home, and then sent to a lab for analysis. Results are typically available within a few days.
While specific data for Beverly Hills is not readily available, Oakland County, where Beverly Hills is located, has seen an increase in syphilis cases in recent years, mirroring a national trend. Comparatively, nearby counties such as Chautauqua County and Beaver County have lower rates of syphilis.
Risk factors for syphilis in Beverly Hills are similar to those in other parts of the country. These include having multiple sexual partners, engaging in unprotected sex, being a man who has sex with men, and living with HIV.
In addition to syphilis, other STDs such as gonorrhea, chlamydia, HIV, and hepatitis are also prevalent in Beverly Hills and surrounding areas. Testing for these STDs is also available at local urgent care centers, primary care providers, community health centers, and through at-home testing kits. Regular testing is recommended for anyone who is sexually active, particularly those with risk factors for these diseases.
