A Review of Home Testing Products

September 15, 2019 by Carter Leave a Comment

Everywhere you turn these days you find innovations that are causing disruptions. If you thought this was restricted to the tech and IT world then you could not be more wrong. These disruptions have spread to virtually every aspect of our lives including health.

With the resources that abound online, a lot of people check online before consulting a doctor. You can read about this here. While many medical professionals frown at this practice, stopping it is virtually impossible since the information provided online are also giving by professionals.

While some are frowning at these disruptions, others are taking advantage of it. A good example is laboratory tests which many folks require either for health reasons or for other reasons. Previously, you could only get tests done in a lab. Today, this has changed. You can now get some tests done right in your home and also get your results immediately.

In some other cases, you can collect the required samples in your home, mail it to a lab and have them run the test and send the result back to you. These are all options that are making individuals take charge of their affairs privately.

In this article, we will briefly look at a few home testing products that are available in the market today.

Some Home Testing Products

LetsGetChecked Testosterone Test

This is a kit for conducting a check of the level of testosterone in the blood stream. The entire procedure is not exactly performed at home. When you purchase the kit, you will find instructions that will help you collect the required blood sample. You will then fill out some forms and then send the sample in the self-addressed envelope included. Once the sample is received, you will receive the result in your secure online account in about two days.

This is a very important test, one that every man should always check for. To have an idea of when to check for a deficiency of this hormone, read this article: https://www.healthline.com/health/low-testosterone/warning-signs.

The Complete Drug Test Kit

This is an interesting package that contains about five different kits. With this, you can check for the present of a wide range of drugs. The entire process is conducted entirely in the comfort of your home. An included color code will help you determine what substance is present in the sample. Some of the drugs that can be tested for include: ecstasy, opiates, ketamine, PMA, folin, and LSD.

Cocaine & Crack Test Kit

As the name suggests, this is used for checking for the presence of cocaine and crack. This can also be conducted entirely at home. Once carried out, the test strip will change color. The color it changes to will give you the answer you seek. There is an included color code to help you interpret the meaning of the color change.

Home STI Testing

This package offers about four different options depending on the need. This is a process that begins in the home and then continues in the lab. That is, you get a package with everything (including instructions) you need to successfully collect the required sample. You then package it as directed and then send it back using the self-addressed envelope. The lab gets the sample, runs the tests and sends the result privately back to you. With the highest option offered, you can test for the following: Chlamydia, Gonorrhoea, Trichomoniasis, HIV, Syphilis, Gardnerella, Mycoplasma, Ureaplasma, Hepatitis B, and Herpes Simplex Virus I & II.

LetsGetChecked Diabetes Test

This is another test option that you can use to check for the level of HbA1c in your blood stream. The amount of this substance in your body will tell you how much sugar you have in your blood stream. This test is not conducted entirely at home. Like a few others already described above, you collect the sample at home and have it sent to the lab. The lab will then run the test and get back to you in about two days.

The above are a few of the testing products that you can find around. There are of course a lot more that we have not mentioned here.

Conclusion

It is very important that you know exactly what is happening in your body. Taking advantage of these tests which are both private and largely accurate is a good way of staying on top of things.

Whether it is a health related issue or something to do with substance abuse, you can find the testing kit that is perfect for your needs and circumstances. Remember that your wellbeing is very important; make it a priority.
