Am I pregnant?
Symptoms of pregnancy include:
- A missed period
- Tenderness in your breasts
- Having to urinate more often
- Feeling sick to your stomach
- Feeling tired
Not every woman experiences the same symptoms. To know for sure, visit Pregnancy Options, and receive no cost, completely confidential pregnancy testing. By having one of our registered nurses perform the test, you’ll know you’re getting the correct result. Our tests are extremely sensitive and should be administered one week past your missed period.
How far along am I?
To know how far along your pregnancy is, you need to have a limited obstetrical ultrasound. At Pregnancy Options, we offer free limited obstetrical ultrasounds. A limited obstetrical ultrasound gives you real-time information. You’ll learn how far along you are, if your pregnancy is viable (is there a heartbeat), and where your pregnancy is located. All of these facts are important for determining the next steps.
Could I have an STD?
If you are sexually active, you should be tested for an STD (sexually transmitted disease). Often, you won’t have any symptoms with STDs in the beginning, but if left untreated, issues will occur later. Some STDs are incurable and can only be managed with medication. Others, if treated early, can be cured. It is possible to get an STD again, so we recommend regular testing. At Pregnancy Options, we can refer you for no cost STD and STI screening with a medical director.
