Description

### STD 7 Panel (Real Time PCR) – Chlamydia Trachomatis, Mycoplasma Genitalium, Treponema Pallidum, Ureaplasma Urealyticum, Mycoplasma Hominis, HSV I

#### Why You Need This Test
The STD 7 Panel (Real Time PCR) is a comprehensive diagnostic test designed to detect seven common sexually transmitted infections (STIs) with high accuracy. This test screens for **Chlamydia Trachomatis, Mycoplasma Genitalium, Treponema Pallidum (syphilis), Ureaplasma Urealyticum, Mycoplasma Hominis, and Herpes Simplex Virus Type I (HSV I)**. These infections can often be asymptomatic, making early detection critical for preventing long-term health complications. By utilizing advanced PCR (Polymerase Chain Reaction) technology, this test ensures precise and reliable results, helping you take proactive steps to safeguard your sexual and reproductive health. Whether you are experiencing symptoms or seeking routine screening, this test is an essential tool for early diagnosis, effective treatment, and prevention of STI-related complications.

#### Symptoms That Indicate This Test
Consider taking the STD 7 Panel if you experience any of the following symptoms or conditions:
– Unusual genital discharge or odor.
– Pain or burning sensation during urination.
– Genital sores, blisters, or ulcers.
– Pelvic pain or discomfort during intercourse.
– Itching, redness, or swelling in the genital area.
– Persistent flu-like symptoms, such as fever or fatigue, without a clear cause.
– A recent history of unprotected sexual activity or multiple partners.
– Partner diagnosed with an STI.

These symptoms may indicate the presence of one or more infections covered by this test. Early detection is key to preventing complications such as infertility, chronic pelvic pain, or systemic infections.

#### Natural Production
The pathogens screened in this test are not naturally produced by the body but are introduced through sexual contact or other means of transmission. The body’s immune system may attempt to fight these infections, but many STIs can evade detection or remain dormant for extended periods. Factors such as a weakened immune system, unprotected sexual activity, or untreated infections can exacerbate the spread and severity of these conditions. This test identifies the genetic material of these pathogens, enabling accurate diagnosis even in asymptomatic cases.

#### What Happens If Untreated
If left untreated, the infections screened by the STD 7 Panel can lead to severe health complications:
– **Chlamydia Trachomatis**: Can cause pelvic inflammatory disease (PID), infertility, and ectopic pregnancy.
– **Mycoplasma Genitalium**: Linked to urethritis, cervicitis, and reproductive complications.
– **Treponema Pallidum (Syphilis)**: Can progress to severe neurological, cardiovascular, and systemic damage.
– **Ureaplasma Urealyticum and Mycoplasma Hominis**: May lead to urinary tract infections, infertility, and pregnancy complications.
– **HSV I**: Causes painful sores and increases the risk of transmitting or acquiring other STIs, including HIV.

Timely diagnosis and treatment are essential to prevent these outcomes and protect your overall health.

#### How to Prepare for the Test
Preparation for the STD 7 Panel is simple:
– Avoid urinating for at least one hour before sample collection if providing a urine sample.
– Inform your healthcare provider about any medications or antibiotics you are currently taking, as these may affect test results.
– No fasting or special dietary restrictions are required.

Following these guidelines ensures accurate and reliable results.

#### Test Overview
– **Sample Type**: Dry Swab / Urine
– **Methodology**: PCR (Polymerase Chain Reaction)
– **Turnaround Time (TAT)**: 1 Day

This test uses cutting-edge molecular diagnostics to detect the DNA or RNA of pathogens with unparalleled precision. Results are typically available within 24 hours, allowing for prompt follow-up care if needed.
