Frequently Asked Questions

1. How accurate is the UTI test kit?

The UTI test kit offers 96% accuracy in detecting leukocytes and nitrites, the key indicators of urinary tract infections. The test is CE certified and clinically tested for reliability. While highly accurate for home screening, we recommend consulting your healthcare provider for proper diagnosis and treatment if results are positive.

2. How long does it take to get results?

Results appear in just 1-2 minutes after dipping the test strip in urine. The test pads will change color, which you can compare to the included reference chart to interpret whether leukocytes or nitrites are present.

3. How do I use the test strip?

Remove one strip from the sealed pouch and dip the absorbent tip in your urine stream for 1-2 seconds (or in a collected sample). Remove excess urine by placing on absorbent material like a paper towel, then read the results at 1 minute for nitrites and 2 minutes for leukocytes.

4. What do the results mean?

The test detects two indicators: leukocytes (white blood cells that suggest infection) and nitrites (produced by certain bacteria). Positive results for either or both may indicate a UTI and warrant medical attention. Negative results suggest no UTI, but if symptoms persist, consult your healthcare provider as some infections may not produce detectable levels of these markers.

Other Considerations

Diagnostic tests should always be interpreted in the context of other clinical information. A positive result should be reviewed alongside your symptoms and discussed with your GP for further guidance.

If your test result is negative but symptoms persist, it is important to consult your GP to explore other potential causes.

Self-testing alone does not replace professional medical evaluation. Test results should be considered alongside your medical history, and any diagnosis or treatment decisions should only be made in consultation with a doctor or qualified healthcare professional.
