Privet (t210) IgE details
What Privet (t210) IgE shows
Privet is a shrub or small tree widely used for hedges, belonging to the olive family. It flowers in late spring and early summer, releasing pollen that can trigger symptoms in people who live nearby. This test measures IgE antibodies specific to privet pollen in your blood to check for allergic sensitization. A positive result can help explain seasonal sneezing, a runny nose or itchy eyes during its flowering season. Privet pollen can cross-react with olive and ash pollen, which belong to the same family. A positive result shows sensitization, not necessarily allergy, so it is read against your symptoms.
