White Pine
White pine trees are conifers with long, slender needles and can contribute to pollen-related allergies. Although their pollen is less potent than that of some other trees, it may still cause symptoms in sensitive individuals, especially during peak pollen levels in spring.
Description
Consider getting tested for a white pine allergy if you experience allergy symptoms in the spring that seem to worsen on days with high pollen counts, particularly in areas with dense pine forests.
- Sneezing
- Itchy, watery eyes
- Runny or congested nose
- Coughing
- Asthma exacerbations, particularly in individuals with respiratory sensitivities
Allergic reactions to white pine are due to the immune system’s response to the pollen, which it mistakenly perceives as a threat, causing typical allergy symptoms.
To manage symptoms, keep windows closed during high pollen times, use air filters in your home, and consider wearing a dust mask when doing outdoor activities, especially in pine-rich areas.

The home test was straightforward with easy to follow instructions. The test result was detailed and clear in its presentation. Also had the opportunity to ask questions about the test result.

We looked at a lot of companies offering the same services but made the decision to go forward with get tested because the labs are based here in the UK. The process has been very straight forward.

There are other providers out there, I have tried 3. Gettested was the fastest and the customer service was the best. I even received my test on the day of purchase delivered by a motorbike courier.

I found them to be professional and not too long a wait for results. Helpful with any after questions. Will be using them again if need be. I highly recommend them.
