ScreenMe tests

Everything you need to know about the tests you can have, how to use your kit and collecting your samples:

  • Understanding what is happening inside your body can help you understand your current health and fertility status and give you direction to improve your health. It can also help you control your symptoms and improve your chances of a healthy conception and pregnancy and improve the health of your future baby prior to birth, reducing their risk of disease. ScreenMe also provides you with insights into your future fertility status, helping you to plan accordingly.
  • The ScreenMe tests look at both your important blood markers, hormones and gut microbiome. This is because our health professionals and scientists believe in combining these results to give you a better understanding of where your body and fertility stands. The results also help to tailor accurate nutrition and lifestyle advice to help you take control of your health.

You can learn more about the microbiome and health markers, and what they are important for, in the articles below:
