Ultrasound

Confirm Your Pregnancy With an Ultrasound

Getting a positive pregnancy test result doesn’t give the whole picture. You’ll need more information to understand your options and take the next steps, starting with an ultrasound.

At Choices Pregnancy Center, we’re here to guide you through the process of an ultrasound and help you feel informed every step of the way.

What Can an Ultrasound Tell You?

Ultrasound uses low-frequency sound waves to produce images of your body’s internal structures. During pregnancy, it’s a valuable tool to gather important details and confirm what’s happening inside your body.

Choices Pregnancy Center offers abdominal ultrasounds. During this scan, gel is applied to the stomach, and a small, wand-like device called a transducer is guided gently over the area.

This scan is essential in uncovering three critical aspects of your pregnancy:

Viability

Is there a heartbeat? Is the pregnancy progressing normally? As many as 26% of all pregnancies end in miscarriage. An ultrasound can help assess whether your pregnancy is developing and identify whether you’ve miscarried, which may require monitoring or treatment.

Gestational Age

How far along are you? Knowing this is key when exploring your options. For example, the abortion pill is FDA-approved only through 10 weeks gestation.

Location

Is the pregnancy located inside the uterus? In rare situations, the fertilized egg implants outside the uterus. This is called an ectopic pregnancy and requires immediate medical attention. An ultrasound helps detect this condition so you can receive the treatment needed to prevent complications.
