stool samples

A stool sample is a small amount of your waste that is collected and examined by a healthcare provider to help diagnose health issues. It can reveal signs of infections, digestive problems, or other conditions by analyzing the bacteria, parasites, blood, or fats in your stool. Providing a stool sample is a common, non-invasive way to gather important information about your gastrointestinal health, guiding appropriate treatment or further testing. The collection process is straightforward and typically involves using a sterile container, with instructions from your healthcare provider.
