Taking a Pregnancy Test
While you may want to know right away, it’s important to wait for the right time to take a pregnancy test for the most accurate result. Pregnancy tests work best about a day after a missed period or a few weeks after unprotected sex. This allows the pregnancy hormone, human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG), to build up in your body to detectable levels.
Testing too early can result in a false negative because the hCG levels may be too low to detect. At Women’s Care, we offer quality pregnancy testing, and our knowledgeable staff is available to answer any questions you may have throughout the process.
Receiving an Ultrasound
If your pregnancy test comes back positive, the next step is to confirm your pregnancy with a no-cost limited ultrasound. An ultrasound will provide crucial information, including whether the pregnancy is viable, how far along you are, and where the pregnancy is located.
This scan helps ensure you have all the information you need to make informed decisions about your next steps.
Understanding Your Options
After confirming your pregnancy, it’s important to discuss your options in a safe, supportive environment.
At Women’s Care, we provide accurate, nonjudgmental information on all your pregnancy options, including abortion, adoption, and parenting. While we do not provide or refer for abortion services, our team is here to listen and inform you of your options.
Support at No Cost
It’s understandable to feel overwhelmed but remember that you don’t have to do this alone. Women’s Care is here to provide pregnancy services, resources, and support at no cost to you.
