Results & Interpretation
The detection of specific bacteria by this test does not indicate a disease diagnosis. This test is intended for research use only and is not a diagnostic tool. Some identified bacteria may not be pathogenic. The Anteros Genital Microbiome Test should be used in conjunction with other clinical criteria and laboratory tests for informed patient management decisions.
About The Test
Analyzed in a U.S. laboratory certified by CLIA standards, Anteros tests extract microbial DNA from vaginal and/or penile swab samples using more advanced DNA sequencing technology in comparison to cultures or PCR. This report provides a comprehensive overview of the vaginal and/or penile microbiome, detailing the relative abundance of bacteria and fungi. These insights can guide interventions based on identified pathogens and reported symptoms.
