The test itself is a simple, easy to use swab to indicate if your vaginal pH level is abnormal.

Women who want to diagnose vaginal infections.

How to use

It’s easy and straightforward to use Canestest at home, in fact it’s similar to inserting a tampon and it shouldn’t cause you any discomfort. To get the most accurate results you need to make sure you don’t use Canestest less than one day before or after your period or if you have any signs of your period or vaginal bleeding. You also need to allow 12 hours after having sexual intercourse or vaginal douching.

Instructions:

1.

Unwrap the Canestest swab (make sure the swab tip does not come into contact with anything before you insert it into your vagina)

2.

Hold the Canestest swab by the handle and insert the yellow tip into your vagina, rotate the swab and then remove

3.

After 10 seconds check the tip of the Canestest swab to see if the colour has stayed the same or changed to blue or green

If your Canestest swab didn’t change colour after 10 seconds, it means that you may be suffering from thrush. If you have symptoms such as an itchy or sore vagina, or thick, white discharge, it’s likely that this is the case. If the tip of the swab did not change colour after 10 seconds and you do not have the symptoms of vaginal thrush indicated in the symptoms table, then it is likely that you do not suffer from these common vaginal infections.

If your Canestest swab changed colour and the tip becomes blue or green, it means that you may have a BV infection. BV infections are usually accompanied by symptoms such as a thin, grey discharge and an unpleasant fishy smell. However, in case of yellow-green, frothy discharge associated with bad odour and painful urination, you may be suffering from trichomoniasis. In this case, you should consult your doctor.

Precautions and considerations

Do not take any decision of medical relevance without first consulting your medical practitioner. Also, if you’re unsure about the right treatment or confused about the result, please consult your doctor. Remember, Canestest won’t be able to give you an accurate diagnosis in any of these situations:

  • It’s less than one day before or after your period
  • There are signs that your period has arrived or you have any signs of vaginal bleeding
  • It’s been less than 12 hours since you’ve had sexual intercourse or used a vaginal douche
