Vaginal pH Test
Vaginal pH Test
Vaginal pH rapid test kit is meant to measure the pH level of vaginal secretions, helping you monitor and maintain your vaginal health by detecting imbalances that may indicate infections or other sexual issues.
Normal vaginal pH is acidic, ranging from 3.8 to 4.5. A disturbance in the micro ecological balance in the vagina (e.g. dysbiosis) is often related to an increase in the pH level. Elevated pH levels often signal conditions like bacterial vaginitis, which can lead to symptoms such as unusual discharge and odour. Regularly checking vaginal pH helps in early detection and appropriate management of such conditions, ensuring overall vaginal well-being.

General FAQs
At-home testing refers to medical tests that you can complete from the comfort of your home, without the need for visiting a clinic or lab. These tests are easy to administer, include simple instructions, and are designed to provide fast results immediately after taking the test, without the need to send the sample for analysis to a laboratory.
At-home tests are designed with ease and comfort in mind. These tests are generally painless, and minimally invasive, which can be self-performed discreetly from the comfort of your home.
Reading the instructions carefully should ensure a smooth experience. Should you encounter any difficulties, please do not hesitate to contact us for assistance.
At-home tests are designed to be able to provide you the test results within of taking the sample.
Test Specific FAQs
- Avoid Testing During Menstruation: Menstrual blood can affect the pH level, leading to inaccurate results. It’s best to wait until your period is over.
- Wait After Intercourse: Sexual activity can temporarily alter the vaginal pH. It’s recommended to wait at least 24 hours after intercourse before taking the test.
- Avoid Douching or Using Vaginal Products: Douching, using tampons, vaginal creams, or other products can affect the pH level. Wait at least 24 hours after using these products.
- Wait After Urination: Urine can temporarily alter the vaginal pH, potentially leading to inaccurate results. To ensure the most accurate measurement, consider waiting at least 30 minutes after urination before performing the test.
This test based on the DIY (Do-it-Yourself) at-home principle. By inserting a vaginal pH sampling stick into the vagina, a sample is collected. When this stick interacts with pH paper on the test panel, a color change indicates the pH level. Various pH levels correspond to distinct colors or shades on the provided color scale, allowing for easy interpretation of the results.
Maintaining a balanced vaginal pH is essential for a healthy vaginal environment and preventing infections. Normally, the vagina’s pH ranges between 3.8 to 4.5, creating an acidic environment that naturally suppresses harmful bacteria. Despite this, vaginal infections are common and can recur across all age groups. Detecting and addressing imbalances in vaginal discharge acidity early is crucial.
An imbalance in vaginal bacteria can elevate pH levels, potentially causing bacterial vaginosis. Symptoms may include unpleasant odours from the genital area and changes in discharge colour and texture. If left untreated, bacterial vaginosis can lead to complications, necessitating medical attention. Furthermore, it can compromise the vagina’s protection against other infections, necessitating timely treatment to prevent further health complications.
Symptoms of bacterial vaginosis include:
Using this rapid test for vaginal pH value is simple and convenient. The test consists of an individual sampling stick specially designed to measure the pH in the vagina.
Follow these simple steps to perform the test:
- Wash your hands thoroughly before opening the vaginal ph test kit.
- Take out the sampling stick from the package without touching the tip itself.
- Separate the labia to access the vagina.
- Gently insert the sampling stick about 5 centimetres into the vagina and wait for about 10 seconds.
- Remove the sampling stick and compare the colour change with the accompanying colour scale.
