Allergy Test for Home: Discover Your Allergies with a Reliable Self-Test

2 min read

A home allergy test helps you discover quickly and reliably whether your symptoms are caused by an allergy. Whether it is gluten intolerance, cow’s milk allergy or pet allergy – a self-test will give you clarity within minutes.

What is an allergy and why test?

An allergy is a hypersensitivity reaction of the immune system to normally harmless substances (allergens). The body then produces IgE antibodies, leading to symptoms such as:

– Itching, hives or eczema
– Respiratory problems, asthma or hay fever
– Gastrointestinal complaints such as abdominal pain and diarrhoea
– Fatigue and concentration problems

Frequently asked questions about allergy tests

How does an allergy self-test work?

Most allergy tests work with a small drop of blood from your fingertip. The blood is applied to a test cassette that reacts to specific IgE antibodies. Within 10-15 minutes, you will read the result.

What is the difference between an allergy and intolerance?

In an allergy, the immune system reacts (IgE antibodies), which can be rapid and sometimes severe. In intolerance, there is no immune response but the body has difficulty digesting, leading to more gradual symptoms.

How reliable are allergy self-tests?

The Tester’s allergy tests are CE-certified and have high reliability. For a definitive diagnosis, we recommend contacting your GP in case of a positive result.

Can I test for multiple allergies at the same time?

Yes, we offer combination tests such as the 3-in-1 test (house dust mite, cat, pollen) and the comprehensive allergy test for 10 allergens.

From what age can an allergy test be done?

Our allergy tests are suitable for adults and children from 3 years of age. With young children, we always recommend consulting your GP.
