What Does Positive IgG Antibodies During Pregnancy Indicate?
Question: Would like to consult deeply about my wife's pregnancy and problems we faced due to IGg IGm infections.
Brief Answer:
IgG remains positive for lifetime
Detailed Answer:
Hi dear,
I have gone through your question and understand your concerns.
Once the infection occurs, IgG antibodies remain positive for lifetime.
However, IgM antibodies remain positive for maximum 6 months of infection.
I can explain you better if you upload the report and give a detailed history.
Hope you found the answer helpful.
