What is Leptospira IgM Test?
The Leptospira IgM Test is a blood-based diagnostic test used to detect IgM antibodies produced in response to infection by Leptospira bacteria. These bacteria cause leptospirosis—a zoonotic disease often transmitted through contaminated water or contact with infected animals. The presence of IgM antibodies typically indicates a recent or active infection, making this test crucial for early diagnosis and timely treatment.

Always consult a qualified healthcare provider to understand your results and determine the next steps, as early intervention can prevent complications like kidney damage or meningitis.
