    What is a STD Test Package - Essential ?

    The STD (Sexually Transmitted Diseases) Test Package – Essential at Orange Health Labs offers a thorough screening for the most prevalent and serious STDs. These infections, caused by bacteria or parasites, are primarily transmitted through sexual contact but can also spread through close personal contact or from mother to child during pregnancy. Affecting millions annually, particularly individuals aged 15-24, common STDs include chlamydia, gonorrhoea, genital herpes, HIV (Human Immunodeficiency Virus), HBV (Hepatitis B Virus), and HPV (Human Papillomavirus).

    Left untreated, STDs can lead to infertility, birth defects, brain damage, and even death. Thus, early detection and treatment are essential for preventing complications, making STD Test Package –Essential at home a convenient option.

    STD Test Package - Essential Parameters

    HBsAg (ECLIA)

    This test uses Electrochemiluminescence Immunoassay (ECLIA) to detect the Hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg). It is a highly sensitive and accurate method used to diagnose active Hepatitis B virus infection.

    VDRL Qualitative

    The VDRL (Venereal Disease Research Laboratory) test is a blood test for syphilis that was developed by the eponymous lab. The test doesn't look for the bacterium that causes syphilis, but rather for antibodies that are often present in people who have the disease.

    Hepatitis C Virus antibodies (Anti HCV) - Total

    This test looks for antibodies to the Hepatitis C virus (Anti HCV) in the blood, indicating a past or present infection. It does not differentiate between an active or previous infection.

    HIV 1&2 (ECLIA)

    This test uses Electrochemiluminescence Immunoassay (ECLIA) to detect antibodies and antigens associated with HIV-1 and HIV-2. It is a highly sensitive and specific method used to diagnose HIV infection.
