The global STI and vaginitis PCR testing market size was estimated at USD 660.97 million in 2024 and is projected to reach USD 1,111.9 million by 2030, growing at a CAGR of 9.21% from 2025 to 2030. This is attributed to the rising global incidence of sexually transmitted and vaginal infections.
Increasing public awareness of sexual and reproductive health, and the increasing preference for highly sensitive molecular diagnostic methods such as PCR testing, significantly drive the market expansion. According to CDC data in 2023, more than 2.4 million cases of syphilis, gonorrhea, and chlamydia were diagnosed and reported in the U.S. This total comprised over 209,000 cases of syphilis, more than 600,000 cases of gonorrhea, and upwards of 1.6 million cases of chlamydia. Additionally, expanding access to at-home testing kits, technological advancements in multiplex PCR assays, and greater investment in public health infrastructure are expected to further drive market growth over the forecast period.
Developing regions are witnessing particularly sharp increases in STIs and vaginitis prevalence, primarily due to inadequate healthcare infrastructure and limited screening programs. Urbanization, migration, and high-risk sexual practices contribute to this rising disease burden. These factors increase the need for accessible, sensitive diagnostic tools capable of handling high sample volumes and delivering reliable results. With its ability to detect low levels of pathogen DNA or RNA, PCR testing meets these demands effectively and is increasingly adopted in public health screening initiatives across such regions.
Regulatory approvals for new PCR diagnostic tests significantly impact the growth trajectory of the STI and vaginitis PCR testing industry. Obtaining approvals from authorities such as the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), European Medicines Agency (EMA), and other regional bodies facilitates faster market access and builds confidence among healthcare providers. Recent approvals of multiplex PCR kits that detect multiple STIs and vaginitis-causing pathogens in a single test streamline the diagnostic process, enhancing clinical workflow efficiency. These authorized products set quality and performance benchmarks that encourage widespread adoption.
