Check for stomach ulcers in just 10 minutes with our reliable, easy-to-use home test. Stomach ulcers, also known as gastric ulcers, are open sores that develop on the lining of the stomach. In up to 90% of cases, they are due to an infection caused by the bacteria Helicobacter pylori (H.pylori).
H.pylori is a small, spiral-shaped bacterium that lives in the surface of the stomach and duodenum. The 2San H.pylori Rapid Test specifically detects the antigens in faeces to quickly determine the presence of the bacterium.
HOW TO USE
The most common symptom of H.pylori infection is a burning stomach pain, which may get better with eating. Some people may also experience indigestion, heartburn, acid reflux and nausea.
