Same day and Affordable Candida IgM 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 IgM Test in Alexandria, . 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 IgM Antibodies. The presence of IgM antibodies typically indicates a recent or current infection. IgM antibodies typically fall below detectable levels shortly after the initial infection. A negative IgM test does not rule out the possibility of Candida infection as IgM antibodies may not be detectable if an infection has not occurred recently or if a person has had similar infections in the past.

We offer several other candida tests. In addition to the Candida IgM test, there are the Candida IgA and Candida IgG 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.
