£19.00
Identify H. pylori Infection in Minutes
Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) is a common bacterium that colonizes the stomach lining and is a leading cause of gastritis, peptic ulcers, and long-term digestive discomfort. Many people carry H. pylori without symptoms, but in some cases, it can lead to serious health conditions, including ulcers and an increased risk of stomach cancer.
If you’re experiencing persistent abdominal pain, bloating, nausea, or indigestion, the H. pylori Rapid Test by GetTested offers a fast and convenient way to check for infection from home. With results available in just 10 minutes, this test helps you take the next steps toward treatment or further investigation.
Who Should Take This Test?
This rapid test is ideal for individuals who experience:
Frequent stomach discomfort – Burning pain, bloating, or indigestion.
Unexplained nausea or vomiting – Especially if persistent.
Acid reflux or heartburn – Chronic symptoms despite dietary changes.
Dark stools or signs of internal bleeding – A symptom of ulcers.
Family history of ulcers or stomach cancer – Higher risk groups benefit from early testing.
If you have been experiencing ongoing gastric distress or want fast confirmation of an H. pylori infection, this test offers immediate results.
Why Early Detection Matters
H. pylori infections can persist for years without noticeable symptoms. Left untreated, the bacteria can cause:
✔ Peptic ulcers – Open sores in the stomach lining, leading to pain and bleeding.
✔ Chronic gastritis – Long-term inflammation that weakens digestion.
✔ Nutritional deficiencies – Poor absorption of iron and B12, leading to fatigue and anemia.
✔ Increased risk of stomach cancer – Persistent H. pylori infections raise the likelihood of gastric cancer.
Detecting H. pylori early allows for timely treatment, reducing the risk of ulcers and improving digestive health.
