Checks IgG and IgM antibodies to toxoplasma to show past or recent exposure. Aimed at pregnant women, those planning pregnancy, or people with a weakened immune system who want to check their status.
2 biomarkers as listed by Medichecks.
This test checks two antibody markers, IgG and IgM, to toxoplasma. Read together, they are commonly used to distinguish a past infection, which normally means established immunity, from a current or recent one, which is relevant for anyone who is pregnant, planning a pregnancy, or has a weakened immune system, since toxoplasmosis can pose particular risks in those situations.
There is no named comparison group for this test, so it cannot be measured against specific rivals here. Against the wider set of similarly sized immunity tests Medichecks and other providers offer, its two markers place it in the 76th percentile for depth, and its £99 price sits around 21% below the roughly £125 median for tests of that size.
It scores well for clinical depth and value for money as a result, but loses marks on collection convenience because it needs a venous draw at a clinic or a home nurse visit, with results taking around 6 days rather than a next-day turnaround. It scores well on trust signals, reflecting Medichecks' Trustpilot record and its UKAS ISO 15189 partner labs, and on results and follow-up because a doctor reviews the results.
This is a sensible choice if you specifically want to check toxoplasma immunity, for example if you are pregnant, planning a pregnancy, or immunocompromised and want to know your exposure status, without paying for the wider TORCH panel that also covers cytomegalovirus and rubella.
If you want cytomegalovirus and rubella checked at the same time, Medichecks' own Torch Screen Blood Test covers all three infections for £269, though that is a much higher price for the extra coverage. There is no named comparison group for this standalone toxoplasma test, so we cannot point to a specific cheaper rival here.
This test requires a venous blood draw, either at a Medichecks clinic or via a home nurse visit; there is no at-home finger-prick option. The lab tests the sample for IgG and IgM toxoplasma antibodies, and a doctor reviews the results before you receive them. Medichecks states a turnaround of around 6 days.
This two-marker test checks IgG and IgM toxoplasma antibodies for £99, around 21% below the roughly £125 median for similarly sized immunity tests we track. It requires a venous blood draw rather than a finger-prick, and results take around 6 days, one of the slower turnarounds in this fact sheet.

2 biomarkers, placing it in the 76th percentile of immunity tests we track.
A blood sample taken at home by a visiting nurse or phlebotomist; with a venous or clinic option as well; a home nurse visit is offered; results in around 6 days, slower than similar tests.
Results are reviewed by a doctor; the provider does not describe the report format.
Trustpilot 4.5 from 2,477 reviews; accredited lab (UKAS ISO 15189 partner labs); doctor review as standard; trading 25+ years.

Highly rated for depth and priced well below the market
An 8-marker blood test covering white and red blood cells, vitamin D, B12, iron status and inflammation, for a broad check of immune-related health.
Six-marker immunity panel below the category median
A six-marker blood panel covering IgG, IgM and IgA antibodies plus total protein, albumin and globulin, for anyone investigating frequent infections or possible immune deficiency.
Combined Covid tests, discontinued from 30 Sept 2026
A combined blood test measuring both nucleocapsid antibodies, which indicate past infection, and spike protein antibodies, which indicate a vaccine or infection response.
Broad 13-marker urine panel, competitively priced
A urine analysis under the microscope plus a culture to check for bacteria, covering signs of infection, kidney health and metabolic changes. Suits monitoring urinary symptoms or investigating an abnormal result.
