How is the HPV test done? What are the tests for HPV?

You can go to the hospital or buy an HPV self-test device to do the test yourself, HPV virus self-test device Hong Kong Kangxin has it, choose one of the two, briefly explain the advantages and disadvantages of the two methods, you can take a look.

1) Go to the hospital and take samples by medical staff.

Advantages and disadvantages: The examinee only needs to obey and cooperate with the requirements of the medical staff, and does not need to worry too much.

You need to go to the hospital to queue up**, issue bills, do tests, and spend a lot of time waiting.

When the medical staff takes the sample, the person will feel psychologically shy or embarrassed.

2) Operate it yourself at home, take samples with the help of an HPV virus self-tester, and then send the samples for testing.

Advantages and disadvantages: You can follow the instructions at home, and the sampling process will not be painful and embarrassing.

The self-test is sterilized and single-use, which can avoid the inadvertent use of inspection equipment without sterilization in the hospital.

In addition to detecting 14 high-risk HPVs that commonly cause cervical cancer, it can also be tested for gonorrhea, syphilis and other diseases.

There are three common HPV test methods, one is the detection of HPV antibodies, the second is the detection of HPV and one DNA, and the third is the detection of HPV antigens.

There are many techniques for HPV testing, and you can choose according to your needs. There are three common HPV virus tests: HPV antibody test, HPV antigen test, and HPV-DNA test.

Specifically, it includes hybridization capture method, fluorescence in situ hybridization method, chip technology hybridization method, real-time fluorescence PCR method, and spot imprinting method. At present, PCR technology is considered to be the best method for the detection and typing of HPV-DNA, and is the most commonly used for the diagnosis of genital warts and HPV infection. The general HPV test is to take secretions.

If there are other suspicious lesions, it is necessary to decide whether to take local tissue for pathological examination according to the condition.

With the advancement of science, there are more and more HPV detection methods. BGI has combined self-sampling technology with next-generation high-throughput sequencing genetic detection technology, and has developed SeqHPV HPV typing HPV detection products over the years, which can accurately detect 14 high-risk types associated with HPV cancer and 2 disease-related low-risk types, achieving full coverage of high-risk types recommended by WHO.

With the increasing development of science and technology, cervical cancer can also be prevented through vaccination, and with regular check-ups, cervical cancer will be strangled in the cradle.

There is only one way to do this, which is to take cells from the cervix and do a lab test.
