WOMEN’S HEALTH TESTIN

Augustus Laboratories offers a Women’s Health Test utilizing real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR) technology. This molecular test panel detects a wide range of pathogens affecting women’s health, providing comprehensive diagnostic insights.

The test includes screening for antibiotic resistance genes, aiding in precise medication selection for effective treatment. It is conveniently conducted using a simple swab procedure by OB/GYN providers. Patient results are typically transmitted wirelessly within 24-48 hours upon specimen receipt at our laboratories.

Augustus Laboratories excels in molecular diagnostic testing for women’s health, focusing on precision and comprehensive detection of infectious diseases affecting the female reproductive and urinary tracts. Utilizing advanced molecular techniques such as real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR), our tests identify a broad spectrum of pathogens including bacteria, viruses, fungi, and parasites. This capability ensures thorough coverage of conditions like bacterial vaginosis, vaginitis, yeast infections, and sexually transmitted diseases such as trichomoniasis, chlamydia, and gonorrhea.

Our approach emphasizes rapid and accurate detection, critical for distinguishing between similar symptoms and ensuring tailored treatment plans. By integrating antibiotic resistance profiling into our testing, we empower healthcare providers with vital insights to guide precise medication selection, thereby enhancing therapeutic efficacy and patient care outcomes. Augustus Laboratories remains committed to delivering state-of-the-art diagnostic solutions that support informed clinical decisions and promote women’s health and well-being.
