Hepatitis E Virus IgG Test at Home in Dubai
Included
About the Test
This test detects IgG-class antibodies against the hepatitis E virus, which typically persist after an infection has resolved. A positive IgG result usually indicates past exposure and often reflects developed immunity, rather than a current active infection. It is used to establish whether you have previously been exposed to hepatitis E, and is often interpreted alongside the IgM test.
What is it? A blood test measuring IgG-class antibodies to the hepatitis E virus, sometimes called the HEV IgG serology test.

No. IgG antibody testing does not require fasting, so you can eat normally and book any convenient home collection slot.
Usually not. IgG typically reflects past exposure and often immunity rather than active infection. If a recent infection is suspected, the IgM test is the more relevant marker.
IgM tends to indicate a recent or current infection, while IgG generally reflects past exposure and lasting immunity. Testing both gives a clearer picture of timing and immune status.
It helps establish whether you have previously been exposed to hepatitis E, which can be useful for interpreting symptoms or understanding immunity. Your doctor decides based on your history and other results.
