Protect Your Health with Toxoplasma Antibody Testing
If you’re concerned about toxoplasmosis – especially during pregnancy or if you have a compromised immune system – you’re not alone. Many South Africans worry about this common infection that can have serious health implications. Our comprehensive Toxoplasma Antibodies Panel provides the clarity and peace of mind you deserve, helping you make informed decisions about your health and wellbeing.
Understanding Your Toxoplasma Test
Toxoplasmosis is a common infection caused by the Toxoplasma gondii parasite, often transmitted through undercooked meat, contaminated soil, or contact with infected cat faeces. Our advanced panel tests for two types of antibodies:
- IgG Antibodies: Indicate past exposure and immunity
- IgM Antibodies: Suggest recent or active infection
By detecting both antibody types, we provide a complete picture of your infection status, helping you and your healthcare provider determine the best course of action.
Who Should Consider This Test?
This test is particularly important if you experience:
- Planning pregnancy or currently pregnant
- Unexplained flu-like symptoms with swollen lymph nodes
- Weakened immune system due to medication or health conditions
- Frequent exposure to cats or gardening without gloves
- Consumption of undercooked meat or unpasteurised dairy
- Eye inflammation or vision changes without clear cause
Early detection is crucial, especially for pregnant women, as toxoplasmosis can affect fetal development.
Why This Test Matters for Your Health
Getting tested provides significant health advantages:
- Peace of Mind During Pregnancy: Know your status and protect your baby’s health
- Early Intervention: Timely treatment can prevent complications
- Immune Status Clarity: Understand if you have protective immunity
- Informed Family Planning: Make confident decisions about pregnancy timing

Many patients report feeling empowered and relieved after receiving their results, knowing they have taken proactive steps for their health.
