Simple health checks in my control

I didn't know that private blood tests were an option. Tried this platform as the packages suited what I wanted for a good price. Easy to follow instructions, and super quick results. Platform provides more information than my gp's ever have on the tests and what the results meant. Would like more clinics to be able to test at (specifically Capital Pathology) but there is a decent network. Will continue to use.

"I'm a little biased as I work here! However, I love that The Bloody Good Test tracks my health over time. After turning 40, I wanted to make sure I wasn't going to drop dead from something basic I should have known about earlier. Measuring all my core biomarkers each year gives me peace of mind my health is on the right track"

Overview

Think of Hepatitis A serology testing as checking your body's security records to see if you've ever encountered this liver virus and whether you're currently protected. Hepatitis A is like an unwelcome visitor that causes your liver to become inflamed and irritated - it spreads easily through contaminated food, water, or close contact with infected people, which is why it's common in areas with poor sanitation. The test looks for two different types of antibodies that act like your immune system's scouts: IgM antibodies show up when you're currently fighting the infection or have recently battled it, while IgG antibodies are your body's long-term security guards that stick around after you've recovered or been vaccinated.

Unlike its cousins Hepatitis B and C, Hepatitis A doesn't stick around to cause chronic problems, but it can make you feel pretty miserable for weeks or even months with symptoms like extreme fatigue, nausea, stomach pain, and that telltale yellowing of your skin and eyes called jaundice. This test is especially valuable if you're planning to travel internationally, work in healthcare or food service, or fall into other higher-risk groups, because knowing your status helps you make smart decisions about vaccination and protecting both yourself and others - particularly important since you're most contagious before you even feel sick.

Symptoms

Essential for travelers to endemic areas, healthcare workers, food handlers, people with chronic liver disease, or anyone wanting to assess their Hepatitis A immunity status.

Questions

  • Immunity from natural infection or vaccination is lifelong in most people. Antibody levels may decline over time, but immune memory cells provide continued protection against reinfection.
  • No, Hepatitis A infection or successful vaccination provides lifelong immunity. Apparent reinfection usually indicates infection with a different type of hepatitis virus.
  • Test 2-7 weeks after exposure for IgM antibodies. If exposed recently, post-exposure vaccination or immunoglobulin may be recommended within 2 weeks of exposure.
  • No, IgG positive results indicate immunity from past infection or vaccination. Additional vaccination is not necessary and provides no additional benefit.
  • The vaccine is 95-100% effective at preventing infection when given as a two-dose series. Protection begins 2-4 weeks after the first dose.
  • IgM antibodies appear first during acute infection and indicate recent infection. IgG antibodies develop later and persist lifelong, indicating immunity and protection against future infection.

How to prepare

No special preparation required. Inform healthcare provider of recent vaccinations, current medications, and any symptoms. Blood sample collected by trained phlebotomist at collection centre. Fasting not required for this test.

After the test

If susceptible (both antibodies negative), receive Hepatitis A vaccination. If acutely infected (IgM positive), supportive care and isolation precautions. If immune (IgG positive only), no vaccination needed. Follow public health guidelines for prevention and contact tracing.

Your test results will be available in your private dashboard. If there are any urgent issues, we'll let you know so you can follow up with your health professional.

Understanding results

Results show IgM and IgG antibody levels. IgM positive indicates acute/recent infection. IgG positive indicates immunity from past infection or vaccination. Both negative indicates susceptibility and need for vaccination. Results guide vaccination and prevention strategies.

Frequently Asked Questions

If your test needs fasting, we’ll include that in your instructions after you order. Fasting usually means no food for 8–12 hours, but water is fine.

Just your pathology referral form (we email it to you)
