Gut diagnostics
Histamine stool test
A quantitative stool test for histamine. Raised values may point to histamine intolerance, pseudo-allergic reactions or chronic stress — and are linked with leaky gut. Sampled at home, evaluated clinically.
No prescription needed. Dispatched next working day.

Principle
Measure first, then decide
Without measured values, any treatment is guesswork. We turn the order around: the lab report first, the decision after.

Ory experts stay with you
Doctors and non-medical practitioners from the Ory team are there for you the whole way — with the lab report and with all that follows.
What a value means, and whether a supplement is right for you, is something to discuss with a practitioner. This page makes no recommendation and is no substitute for medical assessment.

What this analysis covers
What is measured
Histamine levels directly in the gut — more informative than a blood value when chronic histamine intolerance is the question.
The biomarker reference explains what lies behind the numbers: how values interact, which cofactors are involved and which biochemical processes take place in the body — for all values and areas, not only this analysis.
To the biomarker reference
Who for
The test suits suspected histamine intolerance, pseudo-allergic reactions, chronic stress or non-specific complaints such as flushing, headaches or bloating after histamine-rich meals.
What a single value means in your situation is something to discuss with a practitioner. It does not replace medical assessment.
How it works
Four steps from order to lab report.
- 01 Kit arrives Dispatched the next working day, postage paid to your door.
- 02 Take the sample Stool sample with the enclosed collection sheet, a few minutes.
- 03 Send it in In the enclosed transport container, postage paid to the laboratory.
- 04 Get your lab report 7–21 days after the sample arrives, consultation included.
Instructions
The essentials first:
- Take the stool sample with the enclosed collection sheet, avoiding contact with toilet water.
- Close the sample tightly and label it.
- Send it in the postage-paid envelope, as soon as possible after collection.
Please read the instructions carefully. Correct preparation matters: it is what allows your sample – stool, urine, saliva or blood – to be evaluated cleanly and meaningfully.

Sending your sample back
So that your sample reaches the laboratory safely, please follow the rule for your country.
| Country | Postage | Shipping |
|---|---|---|
| Germany | Already paid | Return postage is arranged, you do not need a stamp. |
| Austria | Pay postage yourself | To our address in Vienna, not to Germany. |
| Switzerland | Pay postage yourself | Separate return bag for Switzerland, sent to Germany. |
| Rest of Europe | Pay postage yourself | Sent to Germany. |
In short: Germany, everything is ready. Austria, add postage and send to Vienna. Switzerland, add postage, special bag, send to Germany. Rest of Europe, add postage and send to Germany.
