Candida IgA Test in Corpus Christi, Texas
Same day and Affordable Candida IgA Test, Locations Nationwide
Experiencing candida symptoms such as thick white discharge, itching or irritation in the genital area, a yeasty odor and bloating? Request A Test offers a convenient, confidential Candida IgA Test in Corpus Christi, TX. This test is used to screen for antibodies the body develops in response to Systemic Candidiasis or Candida. Candida is another name for yeast, a fungus which is normally found in small amounts in the body. The immune system normally keeps candida under control but in cases where a person is sick or taking antibiotics the yeast may spread, becoming a potentially dangerous infection.
There are several Candida antibody types which can be tested for. This test looks specifically for IgA Antibodies. The presence of IgA antibodies typically indicates a surface infection of mucous membranes such as the inside of the mouth or the vaginal walls. A negative IgA test does not rule out the possibility of Candida infection as IgA antibodies will not be detectable in all cases.
We offer several other candida tests. In addition to the Candida IgA test, there are the Candida IgG and Candida IgM antibody tests. IgM antibodies typically develop shortly after an infection and decrease in number over time. IgG antibodies increase after an initial exposure and typically indicate a past or ongoing infection. IgA antibodies do not develop in all people and are usually only detectable in certain types of Candida infections.
The Candida Antibodies Test is the most basic test since results for this test are qualitative. They come back with either a positive or negative result. A positive result can indicate an active or past infection. A more thorough test is available which looks for three antibody types. The Candida Antibodies IgA, IgG, IgM Test provides quantitative results for each of these antibodies.
