What's this test for?

This test is ideal if you're experiencing ongoing diarrhea, stomach cramps, or other digestive upset and want to know if adenovirus is the cause. It's especially useful for young children or anyone with a weakened immune system, since these groups are more likely to get this type of infection. Knowing whether adenovirus is behind your symptoms can help you decide on the right next steps for recovery.

What happens after I get my results?

Your results will show up in your account along with an explanation of what a positive or negative result means. If your result is positive, simple steps like staying hydrated, resting, and practicing good hand hygiene can help you recover and avoid spreading the infection to others. A downloadable lab report is available in your account at any time, and you can use the trends feature to track results if you're retested down the road. If your symptoms are severe or you notice signs of dehydration, seek medical care right away.

Who should consider this test?

This test is a good fit for anyone with unexplained diarrhea or gastrointestinal symptoms that aren't going away, especially young children and people with weakened immune systems. It's also useful if someone in your household has been diagnosed with adenovirus and you want to check if you've been infected too. Parents, caregivers, and people managing chronic health conditions often find this test helpful for peace of mind.

What symptoms indicate I may need this test?
Watch for symptoms like watery diarrhea, stomach cramps, nausea, or vomiting that last more than a few days. Some people also experience mild fever or fatigue alongside the digestive symptoms. If these symptoms show up after being around someone who is sick, or if they're not improving, this test can help confirm what's going on.
When will I get my results?
Results are typically ready within about 7 days of your sample being processed at the lab. You'll get a notification as soon as your results are available in your account. This turnaround time allows the lab to run the antigen detection test accurately.
How can I naturally support recovery from adenovirus gastroenteritis?
Staying well-hydrated with water or electrolyte drinks is one of the most important things you can do, since diarrhea can quickly deplete fluids. Eating bland, easy-to-digest foods like rice, bananas, and toast can help settle your stomach while you recover. Getting plenty of rest and washing your hands frequently helps your body heal and prevents spreading the virus to others.
What is adenovirus and why does it matter?
Adenovirus is a common virus that can cause a range of illnesses, including respiratory infections, eye infections, and stomach bugs like diarrhea. It spreads easily, especially among young children and in group settings like daycares or schools. Knowing you have an adenovirus infection helps you take the right precautions to recover and avoid passing it to others.
What does a positive result mean?
A positive result means adenovirus antigens were found in your sample, confirming that this virus is likely causing your digestive symptoms. This is helpful because it rules out other possible causes and lets you focus on supportive care like hydration and rest. Most healthy people recover on their own within a week or two.
How often should I retest?
Retesting usually isn't necessary once symptoms clear up, since adenovirus infections typically resolve on their own. However, if symptoms return or don't improve after a week or two, retesting can help confirm whether the infection is still present or if something else is going on. Always check for new or worsening symptoms before deciding to retest.
What should I do if my results are positive?
If your result is positive, focus on staying hydrated, resting, and practicing good hygiene like frequent handwashing to avoid spreading the virus. Avoid preparing food for others until your symptoms fully resolve. If symptoms worsen, you notice signs of dehydration, or they last longer than two weeks, seek medical care promptly.

What this means

A negative result means no adenovirus antigens were detected in your sample, so adenovirus is likely not the cause of your symptoms. If your digestive symptoms continue, another cause may be responsible and further evaluation may be needed.

* Regular blood test results (e.g., CBC) typically start arriving the next business day after sample collection. More advanced tests may take longer due to complexity.
