An at-home stool test for H. pylori antibodies, the bacteria most commonly linked to stomach ulcers, posted to the lab for analysis.
1 biomarker as listed by Better2Know.
This kit tests a stool sample for H. pylori antibodies, checking for the bacteria most commonly linked to stomach ulcers and related digestive symptoms such as indigestion, heartburn or stomach pain, without needing to visit a clinic.
Within the H. pylori comparison group, £110 sits close to the group median of £97.13. It is cheaper than Better2Know's own clinic-based blood test for the same bacteria at £175, but more expensive than several other options, including MyHealthChecked's rapid test at £10 and Check My Body Health's kit at £11.99.
The scores reflect a well-documented test that is straightforward to do at home, held back mainly by results not being doctor-reviewed as standard and by a price a little above the cheapest options in its group. Trust reflects Better2Know's Trustpilot rating of 4.2 from 775 reviews, CQC registration and 18 years trading.
This suits someone who wants to test for H. pylori from home rather than visiting a clinic, for example if digestive symptoms such as persistent indigestion or stomach pain have raised concern about a possible ulcer. If cost matters most, MyHealthChecked's rapid test at £10 and Check My Body Health's kit at £11.99 cover the same bacteria for considerably less. If you would rather have a blood sample taken at a clinic, Better2Know's own version costs £175.
You collect a stool sample at home using the kit provided and post it to the laboratory using the prepaid envelope included. The sample is tested for H. pylori antigens or antibodies. Results are reported within 2 working days of the sample reaching the lab, through your online patient area. They are not doctor-reviewed as standard, though Better2Know can arrange a consultation if your result is positive.
This at-home stool kit tests for H. pylori antibodies for £110, £65 less than Better2Know's own clinic-based blood test for the same bacteria. It still costs more than several cheaper options we track, including MyHealthChecked's £10 rapid test, and results are not doctor-reviewed as standard.
