Before making up your mind about your pregnancy decision, you will want to know where your pregnancy stands. An ultrasound is vital to the pregnancy-decision making process because it confirms three important details that help safeguard your health:
- How far along you are (also known as gestational age)
- Pregnancy location
- Pregnancy viability
Keep reading to learn more about confirming these details through an ultrasound. Once you’ve received positive pregnancy testing with us, we at WaterLife PCC can offer you a no-cost ultrasound.
Confirm How Far Along You Are
The FDA only recommends medical abortion (the abortion pill) for women through 10 weeks of pregnancy. After this point, there are increased risks to your health involved.
It’s important when considering abortion to confirm your pregnancy with an ultrasound to know how far along you are in pregnancy.
Determine Pregnancy Location
Confirming where your pregnancy is located is important to safeguarding your health. Some women experience an ectopic pregnancy, which is a non-viable pregnancy that can be dangerous and even life-threatening if not treated right away.
Confirm if Your Pregnancy is Viable
Your pregnancy’s viability means whether your pregnancy has a heartbeat and is progressing.
Women can still receive a positive pregnancy test and still be experiencing a miscarriage. An ultrasound can alert you to possible complications.
