ANTI CHLAMYDIA ANTIBODY IGM

The anti-Chlamydia antibody (IgM) test detects the presence of IgM antibodies against Chlamydia trachomatis, which are typically produced during an acute or recent infection. The test is used to diagnose active Chlamydia infections, as IgM antibodies indicate a current or recent exposure to the bacteria. A positive result suggests that the individual is currently infected with Chlamydia and may require treatment. This test is crucial for identifying and managing active infections, preventing the spread of the STI, and reducing the risk of complications such as pelvic inflammatory disease (PID) and infertility.
