Western Springs, IL has the youngest population on our service map: about 32% of its 13,629 residents are under 18 (Census Bureau estimates). Young adults who are still on a parent's insurance plan should know that the policyholder may receive a statement for any visit billed to it. A few CDC points are worth knowing at that age:
Everyone 13 to 64 should have at least one HIV test.
Sexually active women under 25 should have chlamydia and gonorrhea testing every year.
The CDC lists HPV and hepatitis B vaccines among the ways to prevent STIs. Ask about immunizations.
Adult patients can check in on their own, without a parent.

Tests need time after an exposure before they can find an infection. The CDC lists 23 to 90 days for HIV antibody tests, so an early negative may need repeating. If a result is positive, your clinician explains it and recommends treatment, which may include prescription medicine when appropriate.
The CDC advises that partners be treated at the same time, and that people treated for chlamydia or gonorrhea be retested about three months later, since repeat infections are common.
If I use my parents' insurance, will they see the visit?
They may. When a visit is billed to a plan, the policyholder can receive a statement listing it. Your results themselves stay private between you and the clinic. If that is a concern, self-pay visits start at $125, and you can ask the cost of each test first.
