Do you need an ultrasound? If you are experiencing an unplanned pregnancy or you aren’t sure yet, a pregnancy test is only your first step of pregnancy confirmation. You also need an ultrasound to confirm your pregnancy! A positive pregnancy test does not reveal all the information you need to move forward with a decision.
There are three main reasons an ultrasound is essential, including:
- It confirms you have a viable pregnancy (the pregnancy has not miscarried or is ectopic)
- It confirms how far along you are (gestational age)
- It locates the pregnancy (confirm whether it’s growing within the uterus)
