PARASITE TESTING
ID the parasite(s) and look up the most current treatment to irradicate the parasites to stop transmission.Doctors Studio tests for all known bacteria, virus, parasites, and fungi.
This includes microbes that can cause intestinal issues, urinary tract infections, Lyme disease, and many other issues.
There are only a few very small labs that are accurately diagnosing parasites and other microscopic GI inhabitants.
A parasite is a tiny animal that gets nutrients by living off another creature. Parasites can live in your digestive system and cause illness. These are known as intestinal parasites. Once in the intestines, they travel to the liver, spleen, lymph nodes, kidneys, breast, prostate, bladder, and sinuses. Often parasites are microscopic and cannot be seen without a microscope.
We like data-driven decision-making and therefore we have found the most effective ways of testing for parasites based on your history and symptoms. These labs actually find and identify the type and density of the species. Then, a current and relevant treatment protocol is suggested.
Many kinds of lab tests are available to diagnose parasitic diseases. The kind of test(s) Doctors Studio will order will be based on your signs and symptoms, any other medical conditions you may have, and your travel history. It is important that the test is accurate if the full resolution is going to be achieved.
DNA testing identifies every known DNA virus, fungi, bacteria, and parasite (37,000+ RNA testing only identifies RNA viruses). If there are no RNA viruses in the sample, it would be a blank report. Unless you suspect an RNA virus like HIV, Hepatitis C, Zika, etc., you’ll want to go DNA every time.
Doctors Studio tests for all known bacteria, viruses, parasites, and fungi. This includes microbes that can cause intestinal issues, urinary tract infections, Lyme disease, and many other issues.
Benefits of parasite testing:
- Identify pathogens causing inflammation and general destruction
- Accurately treat specific parasite species for the total eradication
- Eliminate unwanted parasites
- Help to provide the information needed to properly re-establish microbiome balance
- Microbiome optimization and support
What are parasites?
Parasites are organisms that infect the body of another living being and live off their hosts to survive. While some parasites create no symptoms in their hosts, others can cause severe illness. Parasitic infections occur when parasites grow, reproduce, or invade organ systems that make their hosts ill.

Some common human parasitic infections found in the United States may include the following:
• toxoplasmosis
• giardiasis
• cryptosporidiosis
• trichomoniasis
• strongyloidiasis
Symptoms
Most parasites come from consuming water or food that has been contaminated. Traveling abroad can also expose you to tropical parasites. Depending on what parasite you have and what body system it affects, symptoms of parasitic infections can include the following:
• Constipation
• Upset Stomach
• Dehydration
• Flu-like Symptoms
• Swollen Lymph Nodes
• Skin Bumps or Rashes
• Weight Loss, Increased Appetite, or Both
• Abdominal Pain, Diarrhea, and Vomiting
• Sleeping Problems
• Anemia
• Aches and Pains
• Allergies
• Weakness and General Feeling Unwell
Diagnosis
Parasite infection is diagnosed by a stool, blood, and urine sample. Your doctor may have to test your stool more than once before you test positive for parasites.
Treatment
Once you know what type of parasite infection you have, you can choose how to treat it. Some parasitic infections disappear on their own, especially if your immune system is healthy and you eat a balanced diet. Others need specific medications combined with herbs and binders. ID the parasite(s) and look up the most current treatment to eradicate the parasites to stop transmission.

CDC GUIDELINES FOR PRESUMPTIVE TREATMENT AND SCREENING
We all have them! Parasites are everywhere. If you have ever kissed a pet or a first grader, then you have a bunch of them. It’s OK, having parasites at different times in your life is part of being human. Getting rid of them is pretty easy with the right testing.
Diagnostics
Advanced Penile Imaging
International Index of Erectile Dysfunction (IIEF) & Sexual Health Inventory for Men (SHIM)
Structured Medical Interview and Functional Physical Examination
Complete Physical Exam, Vitals, Body Composition, HRV
Validated Questionnaires: International Index of Erectile Dysfunction (IIEF) & Sexual Health Inventory for Men (SHIM)
Validated Questionnaires

Advanced Diagnostics
Advanced blood and urine testing to include inflammatory markers, focused genetics, hormone levels, metabolic markers, autoantibodies, immune system, kidney function, liver function, electrolytes, proteins, pancreatic enzymes, key nutrients, iron studies, and more.
Microvascular Diagnostics: GlycoCheck
Erections depend upon the function of your microvascular and capillary system. You may look and even feel healthy on the outside, but inside your microvascular system, a completely different situation could be developing.
Organ starvation is one reason that diseases begin in the body. When the capillaries begin to lose their function, vital organs don’t receive the nutrients needed to be healthy and the silent spiral of health decline begins. Often one of the first signs of microvascular disease is a change in erections quality.
Advanced Cardiovascular Diagnostics
Coronary Calcium Score (CT), Carotid Ultrasound, and Intima Medial Thickening (CIMT) – early diagnostics of cardiovascular disease in difficult-to-detect young men.
Medical Thermography
Imaging is used to identify the areas of the body with musculoskeletal issues affecting the penis and pelvis as well as proper areas for effective injection therapy, Li-SWL, PRP, SCRF and Ozone.
