Bowel Cancer Home Kit by Better2Know. A Stool Sample which identifies Possible Signs of Bowel Disease or Cancer.

Description

• WHAT IS A BOWEL CANCER SCREEN: The Bowel Cancer Test is designed to identify possible signs of bowel disease or cancer. This test can detect small amounts of blood in your faeces (poo) which you would not normally see or be aware of.
• WHY CONSIDER THIS TEST? If you have had signs of bleeding, you may wish to consider this test. Many bowel abnormalities, which may develop into cancer over time, are more likely to bleed than normal tissue. If there is blood in the stool, this can indicate the presence of abnormalities in the bowel. If cancer is diagnosed at an early stage, treatments are likely to be more effective.
