Herpes Simplex Virus (HSV) 1+2 IgG Test Cost cost 725.4 INR
Symptoms And Diagnosis
Herpes Simplex Virus (HSV) is a common sexually transmitted infection (STI) caused by the herpes simplex virus. There are two types of herpes simplex viruses – HSV-1 and HSV-2. Both types can cause oral or genital herpes. The HSV-1 is usually associated with oral herpes, while the HSV-2 is typically associated with genital herpes.
Symptoms of HSV
The symptoms of HSV can vary depending on the type of herpes infection. Some people may experience flu-like symptoms, such as fever, headache, and muscle aches. Others may have no symptoms at all. The most common symptoms of HSV-1 and HSV-2 include:
- Blisters or cold sores on the lips, mouth, and face (HSV-1)
- Blisters or sores on the genitals, buttocks, and thighs (HSV-2)
- Burning, itching, tingling, or pain in the affected area
- Fever, swollen lymph nodes, and fatigue
Diagnosis of HSV
The diagnosis of HSV is usually made by a healthcare provider based on the symptoms and a physical examination. However, confirming the diagnosis may require a laboratory test, such as the HSV 1+2 IgG test. The test measures the level of antibodies in the blood that are produced in response to the herpes virus. The HSV 1+2 IgG test is a blood test that can detect both types of herpes simplex viruses and can indicate if a person has been infected with either virus in the past.
Cost of HSV 1+2 IgG Test
The cost of the HSV 1+2 IgG test in India is 725.4 INR . The test is available at DNA Labs India, a leading diagnostic center in the country. The test is typically covered by insurance, but it is always best to check with your insurance provider to confirm coverage.
Conclusion

Herpes Simplex Virus Type 1 (HSV-1) infections are acquired through direct person to person contact, most typically by a nongenital route. Recurrent infections are clinically apparent as fever blisters or cold sores. HSV 2 infections are usually acquired through sexual contact. 85% of genital herpes is caused by Type 2 virus and 15% caused by Type 1 virus. This assay helps in determining previous exposure to HSV Types 1 & 2.
