Hepatitis A is a contagious liver infection spread through contaminated food, water, and sexual contact — and many people don't know they have it until symptoms appear weeks later. A simple blood draw is all it takes to check your status. No pelvic exam, no undressing, and results are delivered privately to your email in 1–2 business days.
The incubation period for Hepatitis A averages 28 days — meaning you can be infected and infectious for weeks before feeling anything. Testing is the only way to know your status before symptoms show up or before you unknowingly expose someone else.
Hepatitis A isn't just a foodborne illness. It spreads through oral-anal contact and is recognized as a sexually transmitted infection. Outbreaks among adults have been linked to sexual activity, making testing relevant for anyone who is sexually active.
Most adults recover fully, but Hepatitis A can cause liver failure in some cases — especially in people over 50 or those with existing liver conditions. Knowing your status early means you can get medical support and avoid further liver strain.
If you've had close contact with someone diagnosed with Hepatitis A, eaten at an establishment with a reported outbreak, or engaged in activities that increase exposure risk, testing gives you a clear answer. Acting quickly also opens the door to post-exposure vaccination if needed.
Same-day testing at 4,500+ locations. No appointment needed. Results in 1–2 days.
