What's this test for?

This test is ideal if you're managing anal or rectal HPV risk and need to know which high-risk genotypes are present. It's often used alongside anal or rectal cytology (a Pap-like screening) to help understand abnormal cell findings. This is especially relevant if you have a history of abnormal anal cytology, HIV, or other risk factors for anal HPV-related disease.

What's included in this test?

This test checks specifically for three high-risk HPV genotypes because they carry the greatest association with anal and rectal cell changes that can progress over time. Knowing which specific type is present, rather than just a general positive or negative, helps put your cytology results into better context.

What happens after I get my results?

Your results will appear in your online account with each genotype result clearly explained. If a high-risk type like 16, 18, or 45 is detected, the report will explain what that means so you can decide on next steps, such as closer monitoring or follow-up screening based on your cytology history. You can download a standard lab report from your account at any time, and if you retest in the future, the trends feature lets you track changes over time.

How can I naturally support immune clearance of HPV?

There's no guaranteed way to clear HPV, but a strong immune system does help your body manage it over time. Not smoking, eating a nutrient-rich diet, getting regular sleep, and managing stress all support immune function. Avoiding new exposures by using barrier protection during sex can also help prevent additional HPV infections while your body works on existing ones.

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 when they're posted to your account so you don't need to keep checking manually.

Who should consider this test?

This test is a good fit for people with a history of abnormal anal or rectal cytology, those living with HIV, or anyone with other known risk factors for anal HPV-related cell changes. It's also useful if you've had prior HPV-related conditions and want a clearer picture of which genotype may be involved.

What symptoms indicate I may need this test?

Anal and rectal HPV often has no obvious symptoms, which is why it's usually found through screening rather than symptoms. That said, itching, bleeding, or visible growths around the anal area are reasons to get checked. Many people test simply because of risk factors or a prior abnormal screening, not because of symptoms.

What is high-risk HPV and why does it matter?

High-risk HPV refers to specific strains of the human papillomavirus that are more likely, over time, to cause changes in cells that can potentially become abnormal. Genotypes 16, 18, and 45 are among the ones most closely watched because of this association. Identifying the specific genotype helps guide how closely you may want to monitor your anal or rectal health going forward.

What does a positive result for one of these genotypes mean?

A positive result means that specific high-risk HPV genotype was found in your sample, not that you currently have cancer or will definitely develop it. It simply means closer monitoring or follow-up screening is a reasonable next step, especially when combined with your cytology results. Many HPV infections are managed successfully over time with routine follow-up.

How often should I retest?

Retesting frequency depends on your prior results and risk factors, but many people with an abnormal finding retest within 6-12 months to check for changes. If your results are normal and you have no other risk factors, less frequent testing may be reasonable. Use the trends feature in your account to keep track of your testing history over time.
