Parvo the fifth disease am I immune to it?

This test examines antibodies to Parvo virus B19 IgG from serum.
This is also known as the fifth disease.

The incubation period is approximately 8-14 days.

The result takes 16 days after receiving the material at the lab.

The detection of IgG Ab against Parvovirus B-19 indicates persistent infection or virus contact.
After infection, permanent immunity can be assumed.

Risk to the unborn child.

In non-immune pregnant women, experiencing infection with parvovirus B19 leads to transmission of the disease to the unborn child in a proportion of cases. According to British research from 1998, infection during the first 20 weeks of pregnancy leads to spontaneous abortion or intrauterine fruit death in 9% of cases.

Intrauterine infection very early in pregnancy can cause spontaneous abortion, with multiple congenital defects found in the fetus.
In the second trimester of pregnancy - when the fetal blood volume increases significantly - intrauterine infection with parvovirus can manifest as hydrops foetalis. In mild cases, hydrops foetalis can recover spontaneously; in more severe cases, it can lead to intrauterine fetal death.
In the children who were born alive, no evidence of a relationship between parvovirus B19 infection and congenital heart defects was found.

RIVM advice

Many adults have experienced the disease as children and are protected for life.
Consult with the obstetrician, family doctor, or gynecologist if family members or children at work may have the fifth disease.
Infected mothers can have the unborn child examined for anemia and possibly treated.
