A positive pregnancy test does not reveal all the information you need to move forward with a decision.
Have you thought about getting an ultrasound? Given everything to consider, an ultrasound can provide some clarity, such as confirming the location of your pregnancy and how far along you are.
How Does An Ultrasound Work?
An ultrasound uses high-frequency sound waves to create images of your pregnancy.
Our ultrasound technician applies a gel to your abdomen. Once the gel is applied, the technician will move a wand-like device called a transducer back and forth over the gel. The transducer emits sound waves that are converted into images on a screen. The technician will review the images with you if desired.
Why You Need An Ultrasound
Only an ultrasound can share the essential information you need to move forward.
This scan provides critical details to confirm your pregnancy and offer insight into your health and options. It will determine the following:
- That your pregnancy is progressing and has a heartbeat (as many as 26% of all pregnancies end in miscarriage)
- How far along you are (gestational age), which can identify which options are available—the abortion pill, for example, is FDA-approved through 10 weeks gestation only
- It locates the pregnancy (confirms whether it’s growing in the correct location or is ectopic, which needs immediate medical attention to prevent life-threatening complications)
