£9.99

Vaginitis is the most frequent gynaecological diagnosis encountered by clinicians who provide primary care to women. Most women of reproductive age will suffer from one or more episodes of vulvovaginal candidiasis (VVC), commonly known as thrush.

Symptoms of VVC are non-specific and neither self-diagnosis, nor diagnosis by a physician is reliable without a laboratory confirmation. Incorrect diagnosis results in overuse of topical antifungal agents, with subsequent risk of contact and irritant vulvar dermatitis.

The Health Check easy to use Candida test is a highly sensitive immunochromatographic test device intended for the rapid detection of IgG antibodies to Candida in fingertip whole blood, plasma & serum. It is intended as an aid in the rapid diagnosis of infection VVC.
