Worms & Helminths Screen Stool Test

At-home stool test screening specifically for intestinal worms and helminths.

What this test measures

A single stool sample examined for intestinal helminths and their eggs.

Why these markers matter

General microbiome panels are built around bacteria and yeasts. Helminths are a different class of organism and are looked for differently, which is why they get a dedicated test rather than sitting inside a broader panel. Shedding is intermittent — organisms aren't present in every sample even when they're present in the person. A single negative result is less conclusive here than for most tests, and repeat sampling is common.

What you get

Kit posted to you with instructions and return packaging. Results in your private dashboard, typically around a week after the lab receives your sample.

Before you collect

Stop antiparasitic medications two weeks beforehand unless advised otherwise. Refrigerate and post back same day.

Who this suits

People with a specific reason to look — recent travel, known exposure, or a practitioner's request.

Your next step

Once you have your results, book with a Canwell naturopath, nutritionist or practitioner to talk them through and build a wellness plan that suits you. Book with Canwell
