IMMUNOGLOBULIN M (IGM)

The Immunoglobulin M (IgM) test is used to detect IgM antibodies, which are usually the first type of antibodies produced by the immune system when there is an infection. A positive IgM test typically indicates a recent or active infection and helps diagnose conditions like viral or bacterial infections and monitor the body’s immune response during the early stages of illness.
