IgM antibodies to Mycoplasma pneumoniae

IgM antibodies are the first type of antibodies produced by the immune system in response to an acute infection. When IgM against Mycoplasma pneumoniae is present, it generally indicates a recent or ongoing infection. These antibodies appear within 1–2 weeks of exposure and usually decrease after a few months. Testing for IgM is helpful in identifying the early stage of a Mycoplasma pneumoniae infection, especially in symptomatic individuals.
