About Mumps IgG Test | Immunity Antibody Testing in Dover
Mumps IgG testing helps clarify a person's immune status against the mumps virus.
Mumps is a contagious viral illness that can cause fever, headache, muscle aches, and swelling of the salivary glands. In some cases it leads to complications such as inflammation of the testicles, ovaries, or pancreas, and rarely to meningitis or hearing loss.
IgG antibodies are produced during and after an infection or vaccination and generally remain detectable for years. A positive mumps IgG result usually indicates that a person has some level of immunity, whether from a previous infection or from mumps-containing vaccines such as MMR.
A negative or equivocal result may suggest that immunity is low or uncertain. In that situation, a healthcare professional can interpret the result alongside vaccination history and other clinical information to decide whether additional vaccination or testing is appropriate.
