CertifiedLabsWhat is a Hepatitis A Virus antibody (Anti-HAV) IgM Test?
The Hepatitis A Virus Antibody (Anti-HAV) IgM test detects antibodies in your blood that indicate an infection with the hepatitis A virus (HAV). Hepatitis A is an inflammation of the liver caused by HAV, one of five major hepatitis viruses (A, B, C, D, E). Since symptoms of these infections are similar, this blood test helps your doctor identify the specific virus involved. When you are infected with HAV, your immune system produces IgM antibodies, which can be detected in the blood 5 to 10 days before symptoms appear. Symptoms of hepatitis A typically develop 14 to 50 days after infection, with an average onset of 30 days. Therefore, if you are showing symptoms such as fatigue, nausea, vomiting, fever, stomach pain, light coloured stools and dark coloured urine, get tested for HAV as soon as possible. If you live in Bangalore and think you may have been exposed to HAV, consider getting an Anti-HAV IgM test today. This test will help detect or rule out a hepatitis A infection.
