Overview

An elevated/reduced concentration of serum/blood/urinary/CSF/other [lab test] is diagnostic of [disease name].

OR

Laboratory findings consistent with the diagnosis of [disease name] include [abnormal test 1], [abnormal test 2], and [abnormal test 3].

OR

[Test] is usually normal for patients with [disease name].

OR

Some patients with [disease name] may have elevated/reduced concentration of [test], which is usually suggestive of [progression/complication].

OR

There are no diagnostic laboratory findings associated with [disease name].

Laboratory Findings

Laboratory findings consistent with the diagnosis of [disease name] include:

• [Abnormal test 1]
• [Abnormal test 2]
• [Abnormal test 3]

Dyspareunia laboratory findings:

• Vaginal secretions examination
  • vaginal pH and saline wet mount and 10% KOH microscopy

If history is suggestive, perform:

• NAAT test for gonorrhea, chlamydia, trichomonas
• herpes simplex virus (HSV) culture, HSV-1 and HSV-2 type-specific IgG antibodies
• rapid plasma reagent (RPR)
• vulvar or vaginal biopsy for dermatological problems, malignancy
• Urine analysis, culture for urological problems
• blood count
• Glucose
• Hormones:
  • prolactin, TSH, FSH,LH, Testosterone
• Ultrasound of pelvis
• Laparoscopy
