Detects presence of Group B Streptococcus bacteria in vaginal and rectal samples. GBS colonisation can pose a risk of infection to newborns during childbirth, so early detection helps guide preventive treatment.
Group B Streptococcus (GBS) is a type of bacteria commonly found in the digestive and reproductive tracts. In pregnant women, GBS can be passed to a baby during delivery, potentially leading to serious infections. Our at-home swab test kit lets you test for Group B Strep at home without a clinic visit.
Although this is not a blood test, it sits alongside our range of at-home blood tests and blood test kits—offering a complete home testing kit solution for your health monitoring needs.
Yes. Our at-home Group B Strep test is suitable for pregnant women seeking early screening before labour. Always discuss results with your GP to determine if treatment is needed.

1. Wash your hands thoroughly. 2. Use the first blue gel Amies swab to collect a sample from the vaginal canal. 3. Use the second swab for the rectal sample. 4. Place both swabs into the transport tubes. 5. Seal and return in the prepaid envelope.
