Know more about this test
The Herpes Simplex Virus 2, IgG is a blood test done to determine the presence of immunoglobulin G (IgM) antibodies against herpes simplex virus (HSV) 2. These antibodies indicate past herpes infection, as IgG antibodies develop later in the course of the infection and persist for an extended period. This test helps in the diagnosis of previous HSV 2 infections which can cause genital herpes. It is widely available at an affordable price with Tata 1mg labs in Bangalore.
Your doctor may recommend the Herpes Simplex Virus 2, IgG test when you have symptoms such as bumps, blisters, or open sores (ulcers) around the genital area. No special preparation is required for this test. Eat and drink as per your daily routine.
