The pandemic of coronavirus has increased the importance of antibody testing or serology testing. The testing is different from diagnostic testing. Antibody testing is used to select a past infection. Antibodies are of two types; one is developed when a person gets to recover from a virus, while the other develops when a person gets infected with the virus. When talking about coronavirus, antibodies are formed once a person gets recovered from it. The testing is useful for collecting information about this virus. Antibody testing has various benefits.

4. Gynaecologist
A gynaecologist is a doctor who specializes in dealing with the conditions of women. They also take screening tests like tests for breast cancer and a Pap smear test. A Pap smear test is used to catch cervical cancer. The test diagnoses precancerous and cancerous cells by detecting the presence of irregular cells in the cervical area. The test procedure is simple and won’t hurt you. Also, the test is safe to take even if you are pregnant. The test can also detect different cervical infections and diseases or other underlying health conditions. Some tests are also taken with it to diagnose a disease called sexually transmitted disease.
