Home Screening for Colon Cancer (FOBT)

Colorectal cancer screening can save lives, but not enough people are getting screened. The Fecal Occult Blood Test (FOBT) is a simple, first-step test that looks for blood in your poo. This instructional video will walk you through the steps of the FOBT test to help keep you happy and healthy!

If you’d like to take this test, ask your doctor or call Telehealth Ontario at 1-866-797-0000.

Don’t take this test until 3 days after you have stopped menstruating, bleeding from hemorrhoids, bleeding from dental work, or having blood in your urine (e.g. from infection).
