Am I Pregnant?
Think you might be pregnant? Even if you’ve taken a home pregnancy test and the results were positive, there is a chance that the test could have produced a false-positive. At Abundant Life, we offer lab-quality pregnancy tests and limited obstetrical ultrasounds to confirm your pregnancy.
Pregnancy Testing
A pregnancy test works by identifying the pregnancy hormone, called hCG, in your urine. Pregnancy tests are not accurate until about one week after your missed period. If taken any earlier, there might not be enough of the hormone to be detected by the pregnancy test.
When you make an appointment at Abundant Life, our staff will administer a free pregnancy test and immediately give you the results.
Limited Obstetrical Ultrasounds
If your pregnancy test came back positive, your next step is to get an ultrasound. Our staff can provide you with a free ultrasound to confirm your pregnancy.
Even if you’ve had multiple positive pregnancy tests, the only way to tell if you are actually pregnant is to have an ultrasound. Using an ultrasound machine allows us to see how far along you are in the pregnancy, detect a fetal heartbeat and confirm a viable pregnancy. If your pregnancy is located outside of the uterus, it can cause serious harm and you will need to seek medical attention immediately.
What’s Next?
Once your pregnancy is confirmed, you might be worried about what’s next. If you need someone to talk to, our friendly and knowledgeable staff can discuss your options with you and address any questions or concerns you might have. You are not alone! Make your free appointment today.
