Your period is late, and the result of a home pregnancy test was positive, so naturally, you assume you’re unexpectedly pregnant. The truth is, you may or may not be. 

Experts estimate that more than one in four pregnancies ends in a miscarriage. The majority of miscarriages happen within the first 12 weeks of pregnancy. Depending on when you took the test, you may no longer be pregnant.

How do you determine if you are actually pregnant? With an ultrasound. 

Where Can I Get Free Pregnancy Confirmation?

Choices offers reliable, medically accurate pregnancy testing at no cost to you. It’s essential to take more than one test. If you receive a positive test result from us, we can schedule you for a no-cost ultrasound to confirm your pregnancy.

We understand how stressful this step can be. That’s why a medical professional works closely with you.

What Does an Ultrasound Confirm?

An ultrasound is a critical step to determine the following:

  • Is your pregnancy developing, or have you miscarried?
  • How far along is your pregnancy?
  • Where is it located?

Don’t skip this crucial step even if you are considering an abortion. Get a no-cost, confidential ultrasound at Choices.

Is My Pregnancy Developing, or Have I Miscarried?

You can still receive a positive pregnancy test days or weeks after a miscarriage because it takes your body time to return to pre-pregnancy hormone levels. An ultrasound verifies if your pregnancy is developing by detecting a fetal heartbeat. 

If there is no heartbeat, it is either too early in your pregnancy (before 6 weeks) or you have miscarried. 

How Far Along Am I?

Many women are surprised to learn that the date they thought they got pregnant isn’t correct. You need an ultrasound to determine the gestational age accurately. 

Usually, the number of weeks and days of pregnancy determines the procedure you qualify for. The FDA approves the abortion drugs used in the abortion pill method through 10 weeks of pregnancy only. The further along you are in your pregnancy, the less effective the drugs are.

Tennessee banned abortion except to save the life of the woman. The FDA also does not recommend buying the drugs online, so you would need to travel to receive an abortion.

Where Is My Pregnancy Located?

Although rare, it is possible for your pregnancy to implant and begin growing somewhere other than your uterus. Only the uterus can handle a developing pregnancy. 

A pregnancy that develops outside the uterus is called ectopic. It can cause severe health complications. In fact, an ectopic pregnancy can be life-threatening if you do not receive prompt treatment.
