Auspicious Lab offers the most common kinds of STD testing in Houston. We know that an STD (STI) test can be embarrassing, so patient privacy is a priority with us. At Auspicious Laboratory, we understand our patients’ concerns and we strictly follow HIPAA rules, keeping each patient’s personal information very confidential. For self-paying patients, a doctor’s referral is not required. Any or all medical records are released only to the patient. As long as you’re sexually active, you should be tested for STDs at least once a year. If you have more than one partner, share intravenous (IV) needles, or don’t always practice safer sex by using a condom each time you have intercourse, you should be tested every 3 to 6 months. All adults and adolescents from ages 13 to 64 should be tested at least once for HIV. All sexually active women younger than 25 years should be tested for gonorrhea and chlamydia every year. Women considering having a baby and during the pregnancy shall have STD tested. Testing and treating pregnant women for STDs is a vital way to prevent serious health complications to both mother and baby that may otherwise happen with infection.
