Ultrasounds

Confirming Your Pregnancy

A positive pregnancy test isn’t enough to confirm critical details and help you make an informed decision. Only an ultrasound can confirm your pregnancy and provide the information needed to protect your health and safety.

Moore Options Pregnancy Center will help you get the necessary details with a no-cost ultrasound.

Why Do I Need An Ultrasound?

A pregnancy test can’t confirm whether your pregnancy is progressing or help you learn which options might be suitable. Only an ultrasound provides this information.

An ultrasound uses sound waves to create pictures of your reproductive organs and the pregnancy. It supplies the following information:

• Viability: “Viability” refers to whether the pregnancy is progressing (you have not miscarried) and is located in the uterus (it is not ectopic). As many as 26% of all pregnancies end in miscarriage, which may require monitoring or treatment.
• Gestational age: How far along are you? Knowing your gestational age helps determine your pregnancy options. For example, the FDA has approved medical abortion only through 10 weeks gestation.
• Location: Where is your pregnancy located? A pregnancy should develop in the uterus, but sometimes, the fertilized egg implants in another location (such as a fallopian tube or the cervix). This condition is called ectopic pregnancy, and it requires emergency treatment to prevent life-threatening complications.

This scan ensures you get the facts before weighing your options, allowing you to make an educated decision.
