SELFCHECK Prostate Health Test

Had difficulty extracting quantity of blood from finger, you do need a good lot to fill the pipette although it did seem to work on only having a 1/3rd full. But the kit worked well it was just my blood which was in short supply.

All good thank god

No issues

Great product and fairly easy to use. Had to swing my arm a bit to get enough blood but soon have enough to carry out the test. Follow the instructions carefully and you won’t go wrong. Happy as showing negative 👍

I found in the past that the device for pricking your finger does not produce anything like enough blood for the test, no matter how you hold your hand or how often you massage your finger. So this time I used a Japanese Santoku knife to make a cut in the back of my hand. That worked but the capillary action pipette did not absorb the blood, so I had to ladle the blood over to the test, so I have no idea if I had used enough blood, though there was a line under the C mark, so I think maybe, it was a negative test result.

I bought this test to use as part of the Episwitch PSE. The test is a little fiddly to get blood into the testing chamber, the pipette doesn't work very well. The result is similar to a covid test and showed the test had worked and I had a PSA under 4. A week later I repeated the PSA test at my GP and it came out as 5.2. I would not rely on this test to be accurate at low to borderline PSA values.

Simple enough to use. Results are quick. Most GP's automatically get in touch when the physical examination is due. Not such a bad idea using a test kit at home, whilst waiting for your GP to get in touch.

Followed the instructions carefully with no problems. Simple to use finger prick device and little pipette for the blood sample.
