The Cologuard Test is an at home stool DNA screening for colon cancer. It is also called FIT DNA, stool DNA test, or multitarget stool DNA test. You collect a sample at home with a kit, then the lab checks it for hidden blood and DNA changes. You can get started through participating labs on LabFinder.
You may also hear mt sDNA or fecal DNA screening. The test looks for tiny amounts of blood and DNA markers that can come from colon cancer or certain polyps. It is a screening tool. A positive result means you will need a follow up colonoscopy to check further.
Common reasons: average risk adults who want a noninvasive colon cancer screening option, those due for routine screening but not ready for colonoscopy, or people whose doctors suggest stool based screening as part of a regular plan. Extra care: this test is not for people with symptoms like rectal bleeding, a history of colon cancer or certain polyps, known genetic syndromes, or active inflammatory bowel disease. Ask your doctor which screening is best for you.
Your visit may be a short pickup or scheduling step if the kit ships to your home. At home, open the kit and follow the simple instructions. Collect one stool sample, seal the container, and place it in the pre paid box. Plan about 10 to 15 minutes for collection, then send it back the same day or as directed.
Read the kit guide from start to finish before you begin. Use the sample container and liquids exactly as shown. Do not let urine or toilet water mix with the sample. Collect and ship the sample within the time window on the kit. If you have hemorrhoid bleeding or a current stomach bug, ask your doctor when to collect. Always follow any instructions from your doctor or the lab.
Screening for colon cancer, screening for large colon polyps, follow up of overdue colon cancer screening, family history screening in average risk adults, and routine preventive care. Results need context. Your doctor will review them with your history and symptoms before next steps.
