Bacterial Vaginosis Test BV Vaginal Ph Test kit Ph Test Strips For women

Instruction:

Much like other parts of the body, a woman vaginal has a pH. A healthy vagina is slightly acidic, with a pH usually in the range of 3.5 to 4.5. The acidity of the vagina helps control bacteria and prevents the infection-causing types of bacteria. When vaginal pH is not in the normal range, it may indicate an infection.

The vaginal infection test is based on a change of PH. After a sample is collected from the vagina using a swab, it is placed on the test that changes its color with a change of PH. Since the infection occurs at a different pH, we can determine if there is infection or not.

There usually are symptoms with an infection. The Kit is intended for use by women who have itching, burning, unpleasant odor or unusual discharge .

How to do the test?

1. Wash hands and dry them thoroughly.
2. Take out the test from the package and lift the seal to remove the pH test and guide. The test has a easy to grip handle on one end and pH paper on the other. Don’t let the end with the pH paper touch anything before using.
3. Hold the handle of the test betweeyour thumb and forefinger.
4. Choose either of these positions: Sit with knees spread apart or stand with the foot on the toilet seat. With your free hand, gently spread apart the folds of skin at the vaginal opening.
5. Notice what side of the slim end of the test has the pH paper on it.Gently insert only the slim end of the swab into your vagina until the wider end of the handle rests against the outside skin of the vagina.
6. Once inserted, gently tilt the test so the thumb side with the pH paper on it touches the inside wall of the vagina. Press for 5 second. Remove the swab, being careful not to touch the pH paper to anything. Read the results immediately.

How to read the pH level?

Under a bright light (not fluorescent) or daylight, compare the color of the pH paper on the test to the colors on the pH guide. Slide the pH test back and forth until you find the color on the pH guide that looks like the pH test. This number is your vaginal pH.

What does your result mean?

The range of the pH guide is from 3.8 to 5.2. Normal pH is 3.8-4.5. A pH of 4.6 -5.2 may indicate a vaginal infection.
