Service Providers for Saliva for Fungus
A saliva test for fungus is used to detect fungal infections in the body, such as Candida overgrowth or other fungal pathogens. The process involves providing a saliva sample, typically collected in a clean container. No special preparation is required, though avoiding eating or drinking before the test may be recommended. Risks are minimal, as it’s non-invasive. Results are interpreted by detecting fungal DNA or markers, indicating infection or imbalance. Conditions like recent antibiotic use, poor oral hygiene, or immune system weakness may influence the test's accuracy. Positive results may require further medical evaluation or treatment.
