Comprehensive vaginitis test to identify BV, yeast infection, and trichomoniasis.
This vaginitis panel helps diagnose vaginal inflammation and abnormal discharge by testing for bacterial vaginosis (BV), vulvovaginal candidiasis (yeast infection), and trichomoniasis. These are the three most common causes of vaginitis. Knowing the cause helps manage symptoms. The test is patient-collected and results include treatment options if abnormal. No doctor's visit is required for purchase.

What's Included
Preparation Required
Fasting for 10–12 hours before your appointment is recommended for accurate results (water is fine). Avoid alcohol for 24 hours and intense exercise for 12 hours before the blood draw. Morning appointments are ideal for consistent hormone and glucose readings. The blood draw typically takes 5–10 minutes.
Biomarkers Tested
