About Oregano Allergy Test | Food Allergies in Scranton
Oregano is a culinary herb, and reactions to it are uncommon but reported.
IgE antibodies bind to specific proteins. When the immune system has produced IgE against oregano proteins, subsequent exposure can trigger release of histamine and other mediators from mast cells, producing symptoms such as hives, itching, swelling, or, in severe cases, anaphylaxis.
A blood test detects the presence of oregano-specific IgE. A positive result indicates sensitization, meaning the immune system has recognized oregano proteins, but it does not by itself confirm that oregano is the cause of symptoms. The result must be interpreted alongside the clinical history.
Oregano belongs to the Lamiaceae family, which includes basil, mint, sage, and thyme. Cross-reactivity among these herbs is possible because they share similar proteins. A clinician may consider testing for related herbs when the history suggests reactions to more than one.
