An H pylori test screens for specific antibodies in your blood that are produced by your immune system in response to an Helicobacter pylori infection. If antibodies are found, it usually means you have had or have an H pylori infection.
Helicobacter pylori is a spiral-shaped bacteria that lives in the stomach lining and is one of the most common causes of gastrointestinal discomfort.
It can cause irritation and inflammation, which might lead to ulcers and, over time, more serious digestive issues if left untreated. And about 40% of people in the UK carry Helicobacter pylori in their stomachs.
Ongoing stomach pain, bloating, nausea, or unexplained weight loss are some of the common symptoms associated with H pylori. Other symptoms include feeling full, acid reflux, and discomfort after eating.

Your results will be available within a few days. If diagnosed with an H pylori infection, a follow-up appointment and additional testing may be required.
