About Genital Herpes (HSV-2) Blood Test in Culver City
This HerpeSelect® test looks for the specific antibodies that fight the herpes-2 virus (HSV-2) in your blood.
HSV-2 typically causes genital herpes, but it can also infect the mouth or other areas through skin-to-skin contact. Many people who carry the virus have no symptoms or mistake mild signs for something else.
Antibodies are proteins the body makes to defend against a specific virus. The test measures HSV-2 antibodies rather than the virus itself, so a positive result indicates infection at some point, not necessarily an active flare-up.
Results are reported after the lab completes its analysis, generally within one to three business days. A healthcare professional can explain what the findings mean for you and whether any follow-up is appropriate.
