Candida Screen

Candida Screen


The Candida Screen measures specific antibodies your body produces in response to Candida albicans. While Candida naturally lives in the body, overgrowth can sometimes lead to symptoms affecting digestion, skin, or general wellbeing. This test helps assess whether there is an active, recent, or past immune response to Candida. It may be recommended if you experience ongoing symptoms that could be linked to fungal imbalance.

Parameters Covered

Candida albicans IgA
Candida albicans IgG
Candida Albicans IgM

What the Test Measures

This test measures three types of antibodies (IgA, IgG, and IgM) against Candida albicans in your blood. These antibodies help determine whether the infection may be recent, ongoing, or from past exposure.
