IDEAL Allergy DNA Test
$469
Description
A DNA Test that screens for genetic variations that can affect your inherent risks to be allergic or sensitive to common food, plant, airborne and chemical triggers. This genetic test enables you to understand your inborn allergy risks and make necessary changes to your living environment and food intake to avoid intolerance or allergic reactions.
The test is painless, non-invasive, and only requires a saliva sample collection for our team to generate a report that contains an analysis of your allergies. However, do note that the results in this report are only an indication of your genetic risk based on currently published clinical and scientific studies, and are not representative of an actual medical allergy diagnosis. Always consult with a physician or other healthcare providers if you suspect you are experiencing allergy.

Your HPV test results will be available for you to view in the Camtech Health app within 5 working days after you return your sample to our laboratory.
If you get a positive result from your at-home HPV test then we are here to help support you. Our doctor will contact you and talk you through all of your options and what the best next steps are for you. You also have the choice to take your test results to your own Doctor, where you can discuss your options.
If your HPV result is negative, then you can resume normal testing, which is normally advised to be once every 3 years.
This test for HPV is a vaginal swab test. Once you have ordered and received your test, you can choose a time that suits you and a comfortable place, then insert the cotton bud style swab into the vagina to take your sample, using the instructions in the pack.
Most women experience no pain or discomfort from the at-home HPV test. The swab is small in diameter and should cause no pain during the sample collection. If you experience pain, at any point during the collection process, then please speak to your Doctor.
You should take the HPV test at a point when you are at home, comfortable and have the time to take the test. It is best to wait 48 hours after sex and after using any creams/gels before taking your sample. You should also take the sample when you are not on your period, as this may affect the results. Once you have taken the sample, you should return this to us on the same day, using the prepaid self seal envelope and box.
Do not take the test if you are pregnant or suspect that you are pregnant. It is also not advised to take the sample if you are on your period as this may affect the results.
The Camtech Health at-home HPV test is for any women above the age of 30 and want to take control of their health and understand their own risk from HPV and cervical cancer.
It is advised to take a HPV test every 3-5 years depending on the results that you get. If you are clear of HPV, then you may need to be tested less often. However, if you receive a positive result, then it may be sensible to test more regularly until the HPV has cleared.
Once you have returned your test to us in the mail, you will be notified in the Camtech Health app once we have received your sample at the laboratory. When your results are ready, you will also be notified that the results are in the app for you to view.
If your test and sample get lost in the mail, then please email us via support@camtech-health.com and we will send you a new test kit in the post for FREE, for you to complete and return to us.
