What's this test for?

This test is ideal if you're experiencing symptoms of liver inflammation like fatigue, jaundice (yellowing of skin or eyes), abdominal pain, or unexplained nausea. It helps identify whether you have an active hepatitis A, B, or C infection, which are viral infections that can damage your liver. Many people use this test after potential exposure to hepatitis, experiencing liver-related symptoms, or as part of routine screening if they work in healthcare or have risk factors.

How should I prepare for this test?

No special preparation is typically required for this hepatitis screening panel. You don't need to fast before your blood draw, and you can take your regular medications as prescribed. However, if you're experiencing symptoms, it's helpful to note when they started and any potential exposure risks to share with your healthcare provider when reviewing results.

What's included in this test?

Confirmation Hepatitis A Igm Hepatitis B Core Antibody (Igm) Hepatitis B Surface Antigen Hepatitis C Antibody Index

This comprehensive hepatitis panel screens for three types of viral hepatitis that affect the liver. It detects Hepatitis A through IgM antibodies (indicating recent infection), Hepatitis B through surface antigen and core antibodies (showing active or recent infection), and Hepatitis C through antibodies (indicating exposure or current infection). Together, these measurements help pinpoint which hepatitis virus, if any, is causing your symptoms or liver inflammation, with reflex confirmation testing for accurate diagnosis.

What happens after I get my results?
You'll receive detailed doctor notes in simple language explaining whether hepatitis A, B, or C was detected and what this means for your liver health. These notes include personalized recommendations like whether you need antiviral treatment, lifestyle modifications to protect your liver, or if you should see a hepatologist or infectious disease specialist. You'll also get the standard lab report and can track your hepatitis markers over time using our trends feature, which is especially helpful if you're monitoring chronic infection or treatment response.
When will I get my results?
Results are typically available within 2-5 business days for the initial screening. If any results are positive and require reflex confirmation testing, this may add an additional 3-5 business days. You'll be notified as soon as your complete results are ready to view in your secure online account.
Who should consider getting this test?
This test is important for anyone experiencing unexplained fatigue, jaundice, dark urine, or abdominal discomfort. It's also recommended if you've had potential exposure through unprotected sex, shared needles, received a blood transfusion before 1992, work in healthcare settings, or have traveled to areas where hepatitis is common. People with abnormal liver enzyme tests or chronic liver disease should also consider screening.
What symptoms indicate I may need this test?
Common symptoms include persistent fatigue, yellowing of the skin or eyes (jaundice), dark-colored urine, pale stools, nausea or loss of appetite, and pain in the upper right abdomen. You might also experience fever, joint pain, or general feeling of being unwell. Some people have no symptoms initially, which is why testing after potential exposure is important even if you feel fine.
How can I naturally support my liver health?
Supporting liver health involves avoiding alcohol completely, as it places additional stress on your liver. Eating a balanced diet rich in fruits, vegetables, and whole grains while limiting processed foods and saturated fats helps reduce liver inflammation. Staying hydrated, maintaining a healthy weight, and avoiding unnecessary medications or supplements that strain the liver are also important. Getting adequate rest and managing stress support your immune system in fighting infections.
What is hepatitis and why does it matter?
Hepatitis is inflammation of the liver caused by viral infection. The liver is essential for filtering toxins, producing proteins, and helping digest food, so when it's inflamed, these critical functions become impaired. Hepatitis A usually resolves on its own, but hepatitis B and C can become chronic, potentially leading to serious liver damage, cirrhosis, or liver cancer if left untreated. Early detection allows for treatment that can prevent long-term complications.
What happens if my hepatitis test is positive?
If your test is positive, your doctor will determine which type of hepatitis you have and whether it's an acute or chronic infection. For Hepatitis A, treatment focuses on rest and symptom management as it typically resolves on its own. Hepatitis B may require antiviral medications and regular monitoring, while Hepatitis C is now highly treatable with antiviral drugs that can cure the infection. Your healthcare provider will create a treatment plan specific to your situation and may refer you to a liver specialist.
