It is important to ensure that the purchased HIV self-test bears a CE certification. With the CE certification, the manufacturer declares that their product is reliable and safe to use. HIV self-tests with CE certification are available in pharmacies and drugstores.

Who is the test intended for? The Prima Home Vitamin D Test is designed for individuals who are often at risk of vitamin D deficiency, such as those who experience fatigue, have limited sun exposure, have restricted oral intake, or whose intestinal absorption is impaired.
Maintaining adequate vitamin D levels is essential for improving bone health as well as overall health and well-being. The main symptoms of vitamin D deficiency include fatigue, muscle weakness, and pain in the bones and/or joints.
Vitamin D belongs to a group of fat-soluble secosteroids responsible for increasing the intestinal absorption of calcium, iron, magnesium, phosphate, and zinc. The concentration of vitamin D in the blood is considered the best indicator of the vitamin D level in the body. Vitamin D deficiency is now recognized as a global epidemic and is associated with several serious diseases, including osteoporosis, osteomalacia, cardiovascular diseases, pregnancy complications, diabetes, depression, autoimmune diseases, and infectious diseases. For this reason, measuring vitamin D levels is considered a "medically necessary screening test."

Who is this test for? The Bowel FOB Test is useful for detecting the presence of blood in the stool that may not be visible to the naked eye, especially in individuals over 45 years old. In some cases, the presence of occult blood in the stool is not clearly detectable, so it is advisable to use devices that can do so without restrictions on food intake.

7. Keto Diastix strip
Keto-Diastix test strips are designed to monitor the presence and concentration of glucose and ketones (acetoacetic acid) in urine for self-testing by individuals with diabetes. When in contact with urine, the test fields on the Keto-Diastix test strip change color according to the amounts of glucose and ketones present in the urine. Normally, the body burns glucose (sugar) for energy. However, in diabetics, there is either no insulin or not enough insulin in the body, preventing glucose from being utilized for energy. A large portion of glucose is excreted in the urine. The body then resorts to using stored fat for energy, leading to the formation of ketones in the blood, which eventually also enter the urine. The presence of ketones is a signal from the body that something is not right. The presence of glucose and/or ketones in the urine may indicate that your insulin dosage is no longer appropriately adjusted to your blood sugar levels.
8. Prima HOME TEST Iron FER Test
Suitable for
Individuals with a healthy lifestyle and pregnant women are advised to monitor their iron reserves.
Reasons for a test
Ferritin is a protein complex that allows for the collection and storage of iron in cells. It serves as an iron reserve, storing iron and releasing it to the body as needed. Therefore, monitoring ferritin levels is also a way to assess the body's iron reserves. In fact, measuring ferritin reserves, which can drop to very low levels, is an initial indicator of iron deficiency. As iron deficiency increases, ferritin reserves become depleted. Symptoms of anemia typically appear later. Thus, monitoring iron reserves is an optimal method for detecting iron deficiency anemia and subsequently taking appropriate preventive measures.
How the iron deficiency anemia test works
The test operates on the principle of immunochromatography and is supplemented by a corresponding laboratory test. The cut-off value is set at 20 ng/ml in accordance with international standards.
9. Evial Menopause Test Midstream
The Evial menopause test measures the FSH concentration in the urine. This can be used to detect whether the body is producing an excess of FSH. This is the signal that the body is in the menopause or perimenopause. When performing the test, the absorbent tip is held in the urine stream or immersed in the urine. After a few minutes, the result can be read with the help of the coloured lines that appear.
