HPV Detection Using Self-Collected Menstrual Blood (NCT07733557)
Concordance of HPV Detection Using Self-Collected Menstrual Blood
🩺 Plain-English Summary (8th-Grade Level)
This study is evaluating whether human papillomavirus (HPV) can be accurately detected from self-collected menstrual blood samples. Participants who have had routine clinical HPV testing within the previous 90 days will collect a menstrual blood sample at home using a study-provided collection kit. The HPV test result from the menstrual blood sample will be compared with the participant's prior clinical HPV test result to assess agreement between the two methods. The goal is to determine whether menstrual blood collection may provide a feasible, noninvasive approach for HPV testing.
