Confidential STD Testing for Seniors
Generally STDs are associated with a younger crowd such as young adults and teens. Lately though the number of new cases of STDs have increased in seniors. This could possibly be due to a record number of seniors having unprotected sex.
Some of the factors that have caused the increase of seniors having unprotected sex and STD rates could be traced to such factors as the increase in midlife divorce rates, the increased popularity of such drugs as Viagra, and the proliferation of dating sites on the Internet. Another factor could be older people’s belief that condoms are for birth control rather than protection against disease. After all why would a woman past her childbearing age be worried about getting pregnant, thus less use of protection?
If you are a senior and you suspect that you have contacted an STD but are afraid to get tested because of loss of privacy you should know, there are ways to get confidential STD testing through at home STD testing. The testing allows taking samples at home and sending them off to a lab. Then you get the results and can be told how to get confidential treatment.
