AN OVERVIEW
About BOH Profile Test
Why is the BOH Profile Test done?
One pregnancy loss can be traumatizing, let alone having to face multiple pregnancy losses. Not only does the expecting mother suffer physical trauma, but the expecting father also goes through emotional distress. The hopes and dreams which are crushed and the grief caused due to a pregnancy loss can put a toll on the body of the woman. Thus, it becomes essential to assess the cause of the recurrent losses. The BOH Profile test helps in assessing the reasons for the pregnancy losses. Understanding the reason would help the doctors in providing better treatment for eliminating the reasons for recurrent pregnancy losses.
What does the BOH Profile Test measure?
The BOH profile test generally assesses various parameters to understand the underlying cause of recurrent pregnancy losses.
The three major factors which are measured in this test include:
- Antiphospholipid Antibodies (APA) – These antibodies cause blood clots in pregnant women
- Antinuclear antibodies (ANA) – These antibodies attack the nucleus of the cell
- TORCH Infections – These are 4 types of infections caused by different viruses such as Toxoplasma gondii, cytomegalovirus, rubella virus, and herpes simplex.
Risk/side effects of BOH Profile Test
There are no risks or side effects involved in undergoing the BOH Profile Test. Since it involves a blood test, you may experience discomfort, pain, and soreness when the needle is inserted into the vein for collecting the blood sample. Sometimes, people have also reported experiencing bruising and lightheadedness after the blood test, so you must rest after getting the test done.

THINGS TO KNOW AFTER GETTING TESTED
Interpreting the BOH Profile Test results
The interpretations of the three tests (APA, ANA, and TORCH infections) would better be explained by a certified doctor. However, the general interpretation of the results are as follows:
- The absence of APA and ANA in the blood is considered to be normal.
- The absence of IgG or IgM antibodies in the TORCH test indicates that the expecting mother and the newborns will not have any infections, since no bacteria or viruses or parasites were observed in the test results.
- The presence of APA in the blood would indicate the formation of blood clots, which would need treatment.
- The presence of ANA in the blood would indicate medical conditions like lupus. This may require further testing.
- The positive test result for the TORCH test would mean that the expecting females need to undergo treatment for the viruses, bacteria, or parasites in the blood.
