About this profile
The Gyne Profile is a comprehensive gynecological diagnostic test designed to identify a wide range of bacterial, fungal, and sexually transmitted infections (STIs) affecting the reproductive tract. Sample collection varies by gender — requiring two swabs for females and one swab with urine for males — ensuring accurate detection of potential pathogens impacting genital health.
Exams Included
This profile combines culture and PCR (polymerase chain reaction) techniques to deliver precise results for both common and complex infections:
Candida spp.: Detects yeast infections responsible for itching, irritation, and discharge.
Staphylococcus aureus: Identifies bacterial infections that may cause local irritation or inflammation.
Streptococcus agalactiae (GBS): Detects Group B Streptococcus, which can affect both reproductive and urinary health.
Gardnerella vaginalis (Females): Commonly linked to bacterial vaginosis, causing discharge and odor.
Gram Examination: Provides microscopic evaluation of vaginal flora and infection presence.
Chlamydia trachomatis PCR: Detects the bacteria causing chlamydia, a leading STI that may lead to infertility if untreated.
Neisseria gonorrhoeae PCR: Identifies the pathogen responsible for gonorrhea, associated with pain, inflammation, and discharge.
Mycoplasma genitalium PCR: Screens for a less common but significant STI that can cause pelvic or urethral inflammation.
Mycoplasma hominis PCR: Detects bacteria linked to genital infections and reproductive complications.
Ureaplasma urealyticum PCR: Evaluates bacterial presence that may cause urinary and reproductive tract infections.
Ureaplasma parvum PCR: Identifies organisms associated with mild genital inflammation and infections.
Trichomonas vaginalis PCR: Detects the parasitic STI responsible for trichomoniasis, characterized by itching and abnormal discharge.
