Delivering fast, reliable results within 10 minutes, it empowers adults over 40 to proactively monitor their colon health and reduce cancer risk with a simple, convenient test. ## Description Product description Why is this test important to me?95% of all cases of colon (bowel) cancer result from benign tumours called polyps that grow inside the colon. This means that this type of cancer is one of the few where the development of tumours can be prevented by early intervention. Polyps in the colon often remain undetected for many years until they develop into a cancerous form. If a polyp is found in time and removed, it can halt the development of colon cancer. Early detection of colon cancer is very important and everyone over the age of 40 should perform a yearly faecal occult blood test in order to minimise risk.How do I perform this test?Requires a sample of your stool (faeces), using the collection stick provided.Full instructions for use enclosed.When do I perform this test?This test can be performed at any time of day during a bowel movement.No dietary restrictions are necessary before performing the test.

Review: Accurate - I used this test along side the NHS bowel screening test, for peace of mind, rather than having to wait 2 weeks for the result. Both tests, fortunately, were negative. I found the FIT test fairly easy to use, I didn’t collect samples over 3 days as it advises in the notes, collecting one sample was bad enough! You have to wait exactly 10 minutes for the results, which is quite tense, but the result was very clear. I would definitely use it again. Review: easy to use - very easy to use, did help put my mind at easy while i was waiting for a gp appointment and the nhs one that was sent away was clear also. I do however recommend no matter if the result is normal you still do tests through the GP/NHS as its good to make sure its 100%. I only did this as was waiting 2 weeks for gp appointment ## Features - A simple and reliable test to detect symptoms of colon polyps - Fast result within minutes - CE Approved - Contains 1 single test ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B07NKSL44F | | ASIN | B07NKSL44F | | Best Sellers Rank | 16,297 in Health & Personal Care ( See Top 100 in Health & Personal Care ) 3 in Cancer Tests | | Brand | SELFCHECK | | Customer Reviews | 4.0 4.0 out of 5 stars (545) | | Customer reviews | 4.0 4.0 out of 5 stars (545) | | Date First Available | 10 Feb. 2019 | | Is discontinued by manufacturer | No | | Language | English | | Manufacturer | SELFCheck | | Manufacturer reference | SC8215 | | Package Dimensions | 15.1 x 10 x 2.4 cm; 40 g | | Units | 1.0 Count | ## Images ![SELFCHECK Bowel FIT Type Health Test - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/41aoE9ZXNvL.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: Please can you confirm whether this is a fit test or a fob test? it is confusing as customers are saying different things.** A: This is a Faecal Immunochemical Test (FIT) test kit. This is NOT a FOB type test. **Q: Is this a fob or fit test kit?** A: This is a Faecal Immunochemical Test (FIT) test kit. FIT is specific to human haemoglobin. A FIT test result is not influenced by the presence of other blood in stools, such as that ingested through diet. The FOB test is not specific to human blood, it detects the haem element of haemoglobin, which is common to all blood sources. **Q: Can I take the sample directly from the toilet bowl** A: No. You need to use the plastic included. It sits o er the toilet bowl. The sample will be contaminated of you take it directly from the toilet once the stool is already in the water. **Q: Can this also test for upper gi bleeding as well as from any possible polyps?** A: It checks for blood in the stool I believe. So will depend on that ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Accurate *by C***0 on 12 July 2024* I used this test along side the NHS bowel screening test, for peace of mind, rather than having to wait 2 weeks for the result.

Literally in 5 minutes two pink lines, and i only doing the sample for one day not 3 like suggested. I went to GP about the positive test and they said they won't accept private tests and I had to do one of the NHS ones.. which came back negative.. so now what. How often is this test a false positive? ## Frequently Bought Together - SELFCHECK Bowel FIT Type Health Test - SELFCHECK Prostate Health Test - One Step Bowel Test, 2 Test Pack, Colon Faecal Screening Test Kit, Occult Blood in Stools Home Testing, FOB Detection, Ulcers, Polyps, Colitis, Cancer Screen --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/110997823-selfcheck-bowel-fit-type-health-test](https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/110997823-selfcheck-bowel-fit-type-health-test) --- *Product available on Desertcart Great Britain* *Store origin: GB* *Last updated: 2026-04-22*
