With over 100 different strains, HPV is the most common STI globally, transmitted through sexual intercourse or skin-to-skin contact. In the U.S., it’s estimated over 42 million Americans have a form of HPV, including 11 million men and 3 million women with oral HPV.
Oral Human Papillomavirus (HPV) is increasingly recognized as a key contributor to cancers impacting the mouth, throat, and surrounding tissues, called oropharyngeal cancers.
If you have unexplained symptoms like neck lumps or a hoarse voice, or have reason to think you have been exposed to HPV, then testing can help catch an HPV infection early to effectively address any risk.
The MicroGenDX Oral HPV Test is a state-of-the-art, at-home solution to detect high-risk HPV strains that can lead to severe health issues.
Oral HPV infections are often asymptomatic, meaning they can persist for years without detection, potentially developing into cancer if left untreated. Regular screening allows for early detection, crucial for preventing the progression of these infections. Early intervention typically leads to more effective treatments and better long-term outcomes. MicroGenDX’s Oral HPV Test supports proactive screening and early intervention of high-risk HPV cases.

The MicroGenDX HPV Test uses advanced qPCR technology to detect a wide range of high-risk HPV strains with greater accuracy and sensitivity than other tests which utilize antibody or antigen-based testing. Those methods are less reliable than qPCR which detects the genetic signature (DNA/RNA) of a specific HPV strain, rather than depending on the body to create detectable levels of specific antibodies.
Yes, this HPV test is gender neutral as you simply need to use the mouth swab to collect a sample.
High-risk HPV infections can lead to oral cancers, affecting places like the throat, tonsils, or base of the tongue that can become severe health issues. If left untreated, these cancers may lead to difficulty swallowing, chronic pain, and even disfigurement due to surgery or radiation treatments. Early detection and interventions significantly improve treatment outcomes and can improve your quality of life.
Yes, the MicroGenDX Oral HPV Test can detect asymptomatic infections, making it a valuable tool for proactive health monitoring and early detection of potential HPV cases.
Absolutely. The MicroGenDX Oral HPV Test is ideal for follow-up screening to verify the success of your treatment. Regular testing can help ensure that all high-risk strains have been effectively managed and monitor for any recurrence.
It's generally recommended that individuals at risk for oral HPV-related cancers get tested regularly (such as if you’ve had a history of HPV). Your healthcare provider can give you personalized advice based on your health history and risk factors.
