Canestest is a self-diagnosis test to be used by women who experience abnormal vaginal symptoms, to help diagnose the cause. It is clinically proven to work within seconds by a change of colour.

It works by testing the pH of the vaginal secretion, a colour change of the swab indicates whether the vaginal pH is increased or normal. A positive test (colour change to blue/green) indicates a higher vaginal pH level, depending on the symptoms this could mean Bacterial Vaginosis (BV) or Trichomoniasis. A negative test (no colour change) means a normal vaginal pH.

Keep out of reach and sight of children. Store in a dry place at room temperature. Do not use it after the expiration date.
