Thinking about bowel cancer screening before you're invited by the NHS?
Bowel cancer is one of the most common cancers in the UK, but when it's found early, treatment is often more effective.
While the NHS bowel screening programme invites eligible adults for regular screening, some people choose to take a more proactive approach to their health, particularly if they're over 45 or have a family history of bowel cancer.
Check4Cancer's BowelCheck uses a clinically validated qFIT (Faecal Immunochemical Test), which can detect tiny traces of blood in the stool that may need further investigation.
Why choose BowelCheck?
* Simple at-home test.
* No hospital appointment required.
* Clinically validated qFIT technology.
* Results reviewed by healthcare professionals.
* Suitable for people aged 45+ who have no symptoms.
Who may benefit?
* Adults aged 45 and over who are not yet eligible for NHS screening.
* People with a family history of bowel cancer who are currently symptom-free.
* Anyone looking for reassurance and a proactive approach to their health.
If you have symptoms such as a persistent change in bowel habit, unexplained weight loss, abdominal pain or blood in your stool, you should speak to your GP rather than rely on a screening test.
