Frequently asked questions
Answers to what people usually want to know.
Stool test instructionsFull instructions with visual guidanceHow does the stool test work from A to Z?
After ordering we ship the kit to your home. You collect a small sample with the included scoop, keep it cool and return it in the envelope. You receive the result digitally by email.
How do I collect a clean sample?
Lay plastic film over the toilet or use a clean container. Scoop from the middle of the stool and avoid contact with urine or toilet water.
How much stool do I need?
A small scoop with the included spoon is enough — about half a teaspoon. More is not better.
How long can I keep the sample before shipping?
Maximum 24 to 48 hours in the fridge. Send as soon as possible and preferably early in the week, not just before the weekend.
Should I avoid medication or food before collection?
Some analyses (like calprotectin) ask you to avoid NSAIDs or certain supplements 24-48 hours before collection. Check the instructions with your kit for the exact preparation for your test.
When and how do I receive my result?
Stool analyses typically take about a week after the lab receives your sample. You get an email with a link to your digital result, including explanation per value.
How do I return my sample to the lab?
In the included return envelope with free medical shipping. Drop it in the mailbox; the lab processes your sample as soon as it arrives. For some tests it's important to send it the same day — the instructions make this clear.
What if I have questions or something doesn't work?
Feel free to contact us via WhatsApp, email or phone. We're happy to help you before, during or after your test. If the collection doesn't work, we'll arrange a solution or send new materials — no hassle.
