This test is a comprehensive screening for sexually transmitted infections (STIs), specifically HIV, Syphilis, Hepatitis B, and Hepatitis C. These infections can have serious health implications if left undiagnosed and untreated, making this test crucial for those at risk.
What does the test look for?
The test looks for specific biomarkers or signs of each infection in the blood. For HIV, it detects antibodies produced in response to the virus. For Syphilis, it identifies antibodies against the bacterium Treponema pallidum. Hepatitis B and C tests detect the presence of viral antigens and antibodies produced by the body in response to these viruses. Each provider may test for a slightly different set of biomarkers.

The results of this STI test can provide vital information about your health status. If you test positive for any of these infections, early detection allows for prompt treatment, which can prevent further health complications. The results can also guide lifestyle changes to prevent the spread of these infections to others.
