A stool test for parasites is used to detect intestinal parasites, eggs, and spores through laboratory analysis.
The stool test for parasites is a laboratory examination of stool samples used to detect intestinal parasites, parasite eggs, and spores. The test is commonly recommended for individuals experiencing persistent or recurring gastrointestinal symptoms. For the most accurate and reliable results, three separate stool samples collected on three different days or bowel movements are recommended. Parasites may be shed intermittently, and analyzing multiple samples significantly increases the chance of detection. Intestinal parasite infections may cause symptoms such as diarrhea, abdominal pain, bloating, gas, nausea, fatigue, unexplained weight loss, itching around the anus, or general digestive discomfort. In some cases, infections may be present without clear symptoms but can still affect nutrient absorption and overall health. This test is also known as a Parasitology Stool Test or Ova and Parasite (O&P) Test.
