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.

Pregnant or planning to be?

U.S. cases climbed from 2,163 in 2020 to 3,882 in 2023.

Prevention & treatment

Privacy
Confidentiality & consent in Mississippi
The questions Pleasant Hill residents ask most before testing, answered under Mississippi law — which sets confidentiality and consent the same way statewide. Prefer to keep your name off the record? See our guide to anonymous STD testing.
Can a minor consent?
In Mississippi, a minor of any age can consent to confidential STI testing and treatment on their own — no parental permission is required.
Will it show on my insurance?
If you use health insurance, an Explanation of Benefits (EOB) may be mailed to the policyholder. Under HIPAA you can ask your insurer in writing to send communications confidentially. To keep a test fully private, choose a self-pay private lab, an at-home kit, or a public health clinic — none of these bill your insurance.
Anonymous & no-insurance options
Public health clinics and at-home kits let you test without involving insurance or your regular doctor. Many Mississippi health departments offer free or low-cost STI testing, and several sites provide anonymous HIV testing.
Can my partner be treated too?
Yes. Mississippi permits Expedited Partner Therapy (EPT): if you test positive for chlamydia or gonorrhea, your provider can give you medication to pass to your partner — no separate exam or appointment needed for them.
