A member asked:

Does having thrush in your mouth affect dna test ?

3 doctors weighed in across 2 answers

Shouldn't.: If performed properly and with the appropriate equipment, thrush should not impair the results of a dna swab test.

It depends: Thrush is Candida Albicans which is a yeast infection. If the dna test is just for bacteria like strep it probably will have no effect.
