Overview

This test helps determine if a patient has a recent or ongoing Chlamydia infection, particularly when IgG antibodies are absent or if there is suspicion of re-infection.

What is the Chlamydia Trachomatis IgM Test?

The Chlamydia trachomatis IgM test is designed to detect the presence of IgM antibodies, which usually indicate a recent or acute infection with the Chlamydia bacterium. IgM antibodies are often produced early in the infection process before the more persistent IgG antibodies appear.

Chlamydia Trachomatis IgM Positive Meaning

A Chlamydia trachomatis IgM positive result suggests an ongoing or recent infection with Chlamydia trachomatis. This indicates that the immune system is actively responding to the infection. Immediate treatment is typically recommended to prevent complications.

Chlamydia IgM Test Range

The Chlamydia IgM test range refers to the scale used to interpret the presence of IgM antibodies. A positive result indicates the presence of IgM antibodies, suggesting an active infection. In contrast, a negative result indicates that there is no current infection or that the body has not yet developed a response.

Chlamydia IgM vs IgG

Chlamydia IgM antibodies appear early in the infection and usually indicate a recent or active infection.

Chlamydia IgG antibodies appear later and indicate past exposure or long-term immunity to the infection. Both tests are often used together to assess the timing and stage of the infection.

Chlamydia IgM Positive IgG Negative

A Chlamydia IgM positive and IgG negative result suggests a recent infection. IgM is present early in the infection, while IgG typically appears later as a sign of recovery or long-term immunity. This result requires immediate medical attention and treatment.

What is Chlamydia IgG Positive Meaning?

A Chlamydia IgG positive result indicates that a person has had a past infection with Chlamydia trachomatis and has developed antibodies. This typically means that the infection has been resolved, but it does not confirm whether treatment was completed unless combined with clinical information or other test results.

What is Chlamydia Trachomatis IgG <1:16?

A Chlamydia trachomatis IgG <1:16 result refers to low levels of IgG antibodies, indicating either a very recent infection or past exposure with limited immune memory. A more significant increase in IgG levels would be required to confirm an established immune response to the infection.
