Product Details

Product Description

 Unlike the old methods it does not need any diet before making the test. Just collecting feces / stool in home and completing the test as mentioned in procedure is so easy and everybody can make it.

Why it's offered

 Faecal Occult Blood Test is a new method for diagnosis of Large Intestine and related tumours. This tumours bleed and this bleeding is a good indicator for tumours in stomach or espacially intestines. 

 Bowel cancer is a common type of cancer in both men and women.   About 1 in 20 people will get it during their lifetime. 

 Screening can help detect bowel cancer at an early stage, when it's easier to treat. It can also be used to help check for and remove small growths in the bowel called polyps, which can turn into cancer over time.

When it's offered

 NHS bowel cancer screening is only offered to people aged 55 or over, as this is when you're more likely to get bowel cancer.

 If you're too young for screening but are worried about a family history of bowel cancer, speak to your GP for advice.

Risks of screening

 There are no risks to your health from the home testing kit.

 If these tests find anything unusual, you might be asked to have further tests to confirm or rule out cancer.

 This is used to check for tiny amounts of blood in your poo. It doesn't diagnose bowel cancer, but it's a simple way to find out if you need further tests.

Will my piles ( haemorrhoids ) affect the home testing kit?

 You can still be screened if you have piles (haemorrhoids), although you're more likely to get an abnormal result.

 An abnormal result may be caused by blood from your piles or it could be due to polyps or cancer. If blood is found in your poo sample, you'll be offered another test called a colonoscopy to find the cause.
