Women’s Health

Bacterial vaginosis (BV) is a common inflammatory vaginal infection affecting more than 3 million women per year in the United States. While common, the discomfort and potential health risks associated with untreated infections are significant. At One Health Specialty Labs, we prioritize women’s wellness by providing the most sensitive molecular tools available to detect and differentiate various vaginal infections. 

Our advanced diagnostic approach goes beyond the surface to identify the specific bacterial, fungal, or parasitic causes of your symptoms. By utilizing DNA-based testing, we can offer a higher level of accuracy than traditional clinical methods, ensuring that you receive a diagnosis you can trust. This precision is vital for effective treatment, helping you resolve issues quickly and maintaining your long-term reproductive health. 

Women’s Health test results 

Our molecular women’s health panels utilize polymerase chain reaction (PCR) technology to provide a comprehensive look at the vaginal microbiome. This testing method allows us to identify complex co-infections that might be missed by standard screening. With these clear results, your provider can avoid a “one-size-fits-all” treatment and instead choose a therapy tailored to your exact biological needs. 

Our detailed PCR test for Women’s Health can detect a wide range of pathogens, including: 

  • Bacterial Vaginosis (BV): Identifying specific shifts in bacterial flora that indicate infection. 
  • Candidiasis (Yeast Infections): Pinpointing the exact species of fungi responsible for symptoms. 
  • Trichomoniasis: Detecting parasitic infections with high sensitivity. 
  • Mycoplasma & Ureaplasma: Identifying these often-overlooked bacteria that can cause persistent discomfort. 

What to expect from molecular women’s health testing 

We understand that vaginal health concerns can be both urgent and private, which is why we dispatch reports to your provider in as little as 24 hours. Every positive result is reviewed by a live pharmacist who provides treatment recommendations based on the detected pathogens and your clinical history. This ensures your provider has the best possible guidance to prescribe the right treatment the first time.
