Home Test Kits

Screen your health at home — fast results, complete privacy

When you suspect pregnancy, or have a fever or sore throat and are unsure of the cause, a self-test gives an initial result at home before you decide to see a doctor.

💊 Intimo Life selects easy-to-use test kits with clear results, from cassette pregnancy tests to 4in1 respiratory virus tests.

👨‍⚕️ Consult a pharmacist online instantly — no travel, no queues, completely private and convenient.

🚚 Fast, confidential delivery — plain packaging with no product names on the outside, delivered safely to your door.

How do I choose a home test kit?

Choose by what you need to know. A pregnancy test detects the hCG hormone in urine to confirm pregnancy, with a result in 5 minutes. A 4in1 test uses a nasal swab to detect COVID-19, influenza A/B and RSV in one go, with a result in 15 minutes. Both are initial screening tests; follow the instructions for accurate results.

A home test kit lets ordinary people screen for symptoms at home without laboratory equipment. This range covers both pregnancy tests that detect the hCG hormone and respiratory antigen tests that detect COVID-19, influenza and RSV.

📊 Key clinical facts:

  • Home pregnancy tests are over 99% accurate when done after a missed period and per the instructions.
  • hCG levels in urine roughly double every 48-72 hours in early pregnancy, so it can be detected from an early stage.
  • COVID-19, influenza and RSV share similar early symptoms that are hard to tell apart by sight, so antigen testing helps distinguish them quickly.

💊 Intimo Life offers test kits for every need:

  • Cassette pregnancy test — detects hCG in urine, result in 5 minutes, over 99% accurate.
  • 4in1 nasal swab test — tells apart COVID-19, influenza A/B and RSV in one test, result in 15 minutes.

⚠️ Self-tests are an initial screen. If the result is positive or symptoms are severe, confirm with a doctor or laboratory and seek appropriate care.

About Home Test Kits

What types of home test kits are there?

Home test kits are grouped by what they detect. The most common are pregnancy tests, which detect the hCG hormone in urine to confirm pregnancy, and respiratory antigen tests, which detect COVID-19, influenza and RSV from a nasal swab.

At Intimo Life you can choose the Longmed cassette pregnancy test for pregnancy, and the Wonder Forte 4in1 test for respiratory viruses, depending on your symptoms and what you need to know.

The advantage of self-testing is convenience and privacy, ideal for initial screening before deciding to see a doctor. Remember, though, that it is a screen, not a confirmatory diagnosis.

How do pregnancy tests work and how accurate are they?

Pregnancy tests detect the hCG hormone the body makes after the embryo implants in the uterus. The cassette type uses a dropper to place urine into a sample well, with a result in about 5 minutes and over 99% accuracy when done after a missed period and per instructions.

For best accuracy use the first morning urine, when hCG is most concentrated. Testing too early may give a false negative, so retest after 3-5 days if your period still has not arrived.

The cassette format controls the amount of urine more precisely than direct midstream testing, reducing misreadings. If the result is positive, arrange antenatal care with a doctor to look after the pregnancy from an early stage.

How do COVID, flu and RSV tests differ?

COVID-19, influenza and RSV are different respiratory viruses but cause similar fever, cough and sore throat. A single-target test checks one disease at a time, while a combination test such as a 4in1 detects COVID, influenza A, influenza B and RSV from a single sample.

The Wonder Forte 4in1 test helps identify which virus is causing symptoms, which matters for self-care and preventing spread, especially in homes with young children or older adults.

In the rainy and cold seasons, COVID, influenza and RSV often circulate together, so a combination test saves time and samples — one nasal swab covers every virus and reduces the need for repeated testing.

When is the most reliable time to take a pregnancy test?

The most reliable time is the first morning urine, because it is not diluted and hCG is most concentrated — important in early pregnancy when hCG is still low, so morning urine reduces the chance of a false negative.

Daytime or evening testing is possible, but hold your urine for at least 4 hours and avoid drinking too much beforehand so hCG is not diluted. Once your period is several days late, hCG is usually high enough to detect at any time.

If you are unsure whether your period is truly late, count from the first day it was due; testing at least one day after the due date gives a more reliable result than testing beforehand.

How do I read two lines or one line?

Most kits have a C (Control) and T (Test) position. The C line must always appear to confirm the test works. Both C and T means positive — even a faint T line counts as positive; C only means negative.

No C line means the test is invalid, so retest with a new kit. For pregnancy tests, a faint second line usually means hCG is still low in early pregnancy, so retest after 2-3 days to confirm.

For a 4in1 virus test with separate windows per virus, read each one individually. If more than one is positive it may be a co-infection, so consult a doctor. Always read within the stated time.

Are self-tests as accurate as hospital tests?

Self-tests are highly accurate when the sample is collected correctly and at the right time, but they are an initial screen, not a confirmatory diagnosis. A blood test or RT-PCR at a healthcare facility is more sensitive and the standard method.

If a self-test is positive, or the result does not match your symptoms, confirm with a doctor. A positive pregnancy test should lead to antenatal care, while a positive virus test means you should isolate and consult a doctor for appropriate care.

Things that can cause inaccurate results include testing too early, poor sample collection, diluted urine, or reading at the wrong time. Following the package insert closely gives the most accurate result.

How should test kits be stored?

Store test kits in their sealed pouch at room temperature (2-30°C as stated on the box), away from moisture, direct sunlight and heat such as in a car, because heat and humidity degrade the strip and reagent and affect accuracy.

Never use an expired kit or one with a torn pouch, let a chilled kit return to room temperature before use, and use it immediately after opening. Always keep it out of reach of children.

After use, dispose of components hygienically — for virus tests, seal the used swab and cassette in a bag before discarding, and wash your hands after every test.

Frequently Asked Questions

Generally the earliest reliable detection is about 10-14 days after conception, or from the first day of a missed period. Testing earlier may give a false negative because hCG is still too low, so wait until your period is due and use first morning urine. If it is still negative but your period has not come, retest after 3-5 days.

Antigen tests detect virus best when the viral load is high, around days 1-5 after symptoms begin. Testing too soon after exposure may give a false negative, so if the result is negative but symptoms persist, retest after 1-2 days. Avoid blowing your nose or using a nasal rinse for at least 15 minutes before testing so the sample is not diluted.

Yes, but it may be less accurate than in the morning because daytime and night-time urine is often diluted by fluids. If you must test at night, hold your urine for at least 4 hours and avoid drinking too much beforehand. That said, once your period is several days late, hCG is usually high enough to detect at any time of day.

A standard COVID test detects only SARS-CoV-2, so it will not show positive for influenza. To tell whether you have COVID or flu, use a combination test that checks both COVID and influenza A/B in one kit, since the two illnesses look so similar that you cannot tell them apart by sight, and knowing which one you have guides correct self-care.

A faint line still counts as positive and usually means hCG is still low in early pregnancy. Retest after 2-3 days with first morning urine; if the line becomes darker it indicates pregnancy, and you should see a doctor to confirm. Always read within the set time, because reading too late can show a faint evaporation line that is not a true positive.

Yes, but an adult should collect the sample and hold the child’s head still for safety, inserting the swab gently and not too deep. RSV and influenza are common in young children, and testing helps with proper care. If a child has severe symptoms such as high fever, difficulty breathing or drowsiness, see a doctor immediately.

Antigen testing is an initial screen. If the result is positive and you need certainty, for treatment or a certificate, confirm with RT-PCR at a healthcare facility, which is more sensitive and the standard diagnostic method. A negative result while you still have symptoms or after recent contact should also be retested or discussed with a doctor.

No, because the strip and reagent may have degraded, giving inaccurate results, both false positive and false negative. Always check the expiry date on the pouch before use and store the kit in a cool, dry place as directed. A pouch that is torn or damp should not be used either, even before the expiry date, because moisture degrades the strip.
