DIY vitamin deficiency tests have been around for a while but did you know you can order home health tests, too?
If you’re too embarrassed to see a doctor or you can’t get to your GP, DIY health tests can help to alleviate your concerns or give you more information to make necessary lifestyle changes.
Online health tests have risen in popularity during 2020 due to lockdowns and self-isolation. It has simply become more challenging to queue up outside a pharmacy. For others, the juggle of work and parenting leaves little time to get to the chemist.
But, as difficult as it may be to leave the house during circumstances like these, it is vital you continue to monitor your health. If you have significant symptoms, you must still speak to a GP on the phone and take advice from a medically trained professional.
Home health tests don’t replace the advice of a trained doctor. What they do help with is the possible early detection of disorders, which could lead to more effective treatment. Often, the earlier a disease is caught, the better the outcome.
