Taking an at-home health test is a proactive way to check in on your wellbeing. But what if the result comes back positive? Whether you’ve tested for bowel health, prostate (PSA), thyroid function, vitamin D levels, iron deficiency, UTIs, or even STIs, seeing that result can feel overwhelming. At U-Test, we believe that information is empowerment — and knowing your next steps makes all the difference.
First Things First: Don’t Panic
A positive test result doesn’t necessarily mean something serious is wrong. For many conditions, a positive simply indicates that further investigation is needed. For example:
A bowel health test may detect traces of blood.
A prostate test (PSA) may show raised levels.
A thyroid or iron test might highlight an imbalance.
A UTI or STI test may confirm the presence of infection.
In each case, the test gives you an early signal that it’s worth speaking to a healthcare professional.
Step 1: Understand Your Test
Each U-Test kit comes with clear instructions to help you interpret your result. A positive result is a sign that something is outside the normal range, but it’s not a final diagnosis. It’s the first step in getting clarity.
Step 2: Speak to a Healthcare Professional
If you receive a positive test, your next step is always to contact your GP or healthcare provider. Share your results with them — they’ll use it as a starting point to carry out further tests or provide treatment. Many U-Test customers find this speeds up the process of getting answers.
Step 3: Remember the Power of Early Detection
Whether it’s bowel cancer, thyroid issues, vitamin deficiency, or infections like UTI and Strep A, the sooner you know, the sooner you can take action. Early detection often leads to simpler treatment and better outcomes.
