Starts from 210*
A Toxoplasma IgM Test In Gurgaon is performed to check whether a person has contracted the Toxoplasma Gondii Parasite. If a person has been infected, the IgM antibodies against the T.gondii parasite will form in the body. Depending upon the kind of antibody present and the amount of it, the extent of the infection and whether it was recent or old can be diagnosed. The IgM antibody is the first to be formed, and its presence indicates a recent or ongoing infection that may or may not require medical treatment.

AN OVERVIEW
About Toxoplasma IgM Test
Why is the Toxoplasma IgM Test done?
The Toxoplasma IgM Test is done to check for antibodies related to the Toxoplasma Gondii parasite present in a patient’s body. A person can contract this infection through improperly cooked or uncooked meat or through an infected cat. Handling an infected cat or its faeces exposes a person to this parasitic infection.
While in most adults, this infection poses no major problem and is healed without treatment, if a pregnant woman is infected with this, the infection can pass on to the fetus. This possibility increases with every new trimester of the pregnancy.
What does Toxoplasma IgM Test measure?
The Toxoplasma IgM Test measures the kind and amount of antibodies present in the patient. An IgM is the first antibody that gets formed upon contraction of infection and stays for several days. By conducting this test, doctors are able to diagnose a recent T.gondii parasite infection. By measuring the number of antibodies present, doctors can get an idea of the extent of the infection and draw the necessary treatment plan.
Risk/side effects of Toxoplasma IgM Test
While there are no risks in the majority of cases from a Toxoplasma IgM Test, in rare cases, patients may suffer from phlebitis. Phlebitis is a rare condition in which the area from where blood is drawn may get swollen. In the rare event of this happening, applying a warm compress helps.
