Profile Worms
Parasitic worm infections often cause few symptoms for years — and still explain chronic exhaustion, abdominal complaints and joint inflammation. Highly sensitive PCR from a single stool sample for maximum detection reliability.

The approach
Measure first, then decide
Without measured values, any treatment is guesswork. We turn the order around: first the lab report, then the decision.
-
01
Measure Six worm species and microsporidia from one stool sample, analysed at the partner laboratory in Germany.Worms & microsporidia profile · stool sample · 7–21 days from sample arrival
-
02
See where you stand Every value appears in the lab report alongside the laboratory reference range. You can see which values fall inside it and which do not.Lab report including consultation
-
03
Targeted rather than blanket Instead of a standard package, you take what your values point to — agreed with a practitioner.Initial consultation, 10 minutes, free
-
04
Measure again after a few months The same analysis a second time shows how the values have changed.Earliest sensible interval: 3 months
Ory experts support you
Doctors and non-medical practitioners from the Ory team are there for you throughout — with the lab report and with everything 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 includes
What is measured
All relevant human-pathogenic worm species plus microsporidia, by multiplex real-time PCR from one stool sample.
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
For whom
The test suits people with chronic fatigue, bloating, abdominal pain or joint inflammation without a clear diagnosis — especially after travel abroad, in children, or with long-standing bowel complaints that do not respond to other explanations.
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 Ships next working day, postage paid to your door.
- 02 Take the sample One stool sample with the OmicSnap Meta set.
- 03 Send it in In the transport container supplied, postage paid to the lab.
- 04 Lab report 7–21 days after the sample arrives, consultation included.
Instructions
The essentials first:
- Take the stool sample with the OmicSnap Meta set, 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: only then can your sample – stool, urine, saliva or blood – 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 to add a stamp. |
| Austria | Add your own postage | To our address in Vienna, not to Germany. |
| Switzerland | Add your own postage | Separate return bag for Switzerland, sent to Germany. |
| Rest of Europe | Add your own postage | Sent to Germany. |
In short: Germany, nothing to do. Austria, add postage and send to Vienna. Switzerland, add postage, special bag, send to Germany. Rest of Europe, add postage and send to Germany.
