| Stage | What affects the timing |
|---|---|
| Order review and dispatch | Payment, kit stock, forms, weekends, and holidays may affect dispatch. |
| Kit delivery | Carrier, destination, weather, and service level can affect shipping time. |
| Home collection | You choose when to collect after reading the kit steps. |
| Sample return | The return carrier and service affect shipping time. |
| Lab work | Current estimate: 15–20 working days after a valid sample is received. |
| Report delivery | The report follows lab work and report prep. |
Working days usually mean Monday through Friday, not public holidays. The 15–20 working-day figure is an estimate, not a fixed date.
Use only the address in your current kit. An older address may be wrong.
Complete any label, form, or kit ID before return. Missing details can cause a delay.
Follow the kit steps for the container, packing, storage, and return method.
Keep the receipt and tracking number until delivery is confirmed.
Do not use damaged, leaking, opened, or expired items. Contact support before collection.
Shipping time is not part of the 15–20 working-day lab estimate. The estimate starts after a valid sample is received and accepted for testing.
A carrier delay does not show how long lab work will take. A sample problem, missing form, or new sample can also add time.
Before you order, you can view a sample microbiome report to see the type of information that may appear. After your report is ready, use understand your microbiome results to review the findings and limits.
