SKU TEST-0086
Overview:
The Herpes Simplex IgM test detects the presence of Immunoglobulin M (IgM) antibodies in the blood against the Herpes Simplex Virus (HSV). HSV can cause oral and genital infections, and IgM antibodies are produced early in the infection, indicating a recent or active infection with the virus.
What it detects:
This test detects IgM antibodies, which are typically present during the early stages of a Herpes Simplex Virus infection. A positive result suggests a recent or active infection with either HSV-1 (oral herpes) or HSV-2 (genital herpes).
Who should get it:
Individuals who exhibit symptoms of a Herpes Simplex Virus infection (such as blisters, sores, or pain in the affected area) or those who are at risk for exposure to HSV (e.g., individuals with multiple sexual partners, or a history of genital or oral herpes) should consider this test. It may also be used to detect the virus in newborns or people with compromised immune systems.
