The TORCH 4 IgG test detects IgG antibodies to Toxoplasma, CMV, Rubella, and HSV-2, indicating past exposure or immunity to these infections.
The TORCH 4 IgG test is a crucial blood test that detects IgG antibodies against four significant infections: Toxoplasmosis, Cytomegalovirus (CMV), Rubella, and Herpes Simplex Virus type 2 (HSV-2). This test is particularly important for assessing immunity to these infections, especially in pregnant women, as it helps evaluate the risk of congenital infections that could affect the fetus.
The TORCH 4 IgG test serves as an essential tool in maternal healthcare. By determining the presence of IgG antibodies, healthcare providers can assess whether a pregnant woman has immunity to these infections, thereby reducing the risk of complications during pregnancy. The test is vital in guiding clinical decisions, monitoring maternal health, and ensuring the well-being of the unborn child.
The TORCH 4 IgG test is recommended primarily for pregnant women or those planning to conceive. It is especially important for women with a history of infections, recurrent pregnancy losses, or those who have had previous children with congenital infections. Additionally, individuals displaying symptoms indicative of these infections may also benefit from the test.

The test detects IgG antibodies for Toxoplasmosis, Cytomegalovirus (CMV), Rubella, and Herpes Simplex Virus type 2 (HSV-2).
A blood sample is collected from a vein in your arm and analyzed in a laboratory to detect the presence of IgG antibodies.
Positive IgG results suggest previous exposure to the infections and the presence of antibodies, indicating immunity. Further evaluation may be necessary if there are associated symptoms.
Typically, no special preparation is needed. However, it’s essential to inform your healthcare provider about any symptoms or recent exposure to the infections being tested.
