MicroGenDX HPV Test: Your Aid in Precision Detection for Proactive Health Management Early Detection, Comprehensive Insight, Peace of Mind Human papillomavirus (HPV) is one of the most prevalent sexually transmitted infections, with millions of people infected globally each year. In the U.S. alone, it’s thought that 42 million Americans have some form of HPV, with 13-14 million people getting infected annually. If left undetected, HPV has the potential to cause serious health complications. While many HPV infections clear up on their own, specific high-risk strains can lead to conditions such as cervical cancer, genital warts, vaginal cancer, or penile cancer. To safeguard your health, the MicroGenDX HPV Test offers a hi-tech, thorough, and reliable approach to identify these risks early, empowering you with the clarity needed to proactively protect your health. Why Choose the MicroGenDX HPV Test? Targeted HPV Strain DetectionOur HPV Test detects a range of high-risk HPV strains, targeting the variants most associated with serious health risks, mainly cancer. Specifically, the test screens for: HPV Strains: 16, 18, 31, 35, 52 By focusing on these cancer-causing strains, the test offers a detailed picture of your HPV status, helping you make informed decisions about your health. Leading Technology – qPCRThe MicroGenDX HPV Test is powered by industry-leading quantitative Polymerase Chain Reaction (qPCR) technology, widely recognized as the gold standard known for COVID-19 testing. This exceptional level of precision is crucial to detecting high-risk HPV strains early, giving you and your healthcare provider the best chance to manage any potential health risk, often before symptoms appear. Higher Standard than Leading MethodsOther products utilize antigen - or antibody-based testing, which can be less reliable as these methods depend on detecting viral proteins or antibodies. These indicators may not be present at detectable levels during early infection or when the virus is latent, leading to a higher risk of false negative results. In addition, these tests require the body to develop an immune response.qPCR results are more objective and precise as they reveal how much viral DNA is present – leaving little room for interpretation.
