28 Pathogen Screen
List Of Options
The 28-Pathogen STD/STI Test Panel is an advanced and comprehensive screening designed to detect a wide range of sexually transmitted, vaginal, and genital infections. This panel covers bacterial, viral, and yeast-related conditions, helping identify both common and less-recognized causes of symptoms and infections.
The panel includes testing for:
- Multiple Candida (yeast) species, which can cause recurrent or resistant yeast infections
- Bacterial vaginosis–related organisms, including Gardnerella vaginalis, Atopobium vaginae, BVAB2, Mobiluncus, Megasphaera, and Bacteroides fragilis
- Sexually transmitted bacteria, such as Chlamydia trachomatis, Gonorrhea, Trichomonas vaginalis, Mycoplasma, Ureaplasma, Syphilis, Chancroid, and Lymphogranuloma venereum
- Viral infections, including Herpes Simplex Virus Types I & II, Cytomegalovirus, and Varicella-Zoster Virus
- Protective vaginal bacteria, such as Lactobacillus species, to help assess vaginal health balance
This panel is ideal for individuals seeking a thorough sexual and vaginal health evaluation, especially those with persistent symptoms, recurrent infections, or those who want the most comprehensive testing available.
