An abortion is a serious pregnancy decision. There are three main things needed before making up your mind about abortion: pregnancy testing, an ultrasound, and more information about your pregnancy options.
We’re here to provide you with the facts so you can move forward with clarity. Take one step at a time.
Pregnancy Testing
Pregnancy testing is the first step to confirming your pregnancy details. The Mayo Clinic recommends women take a pregnancy test at least one day after a missed period to get the most accurate results.
The Crossroads Care Clinic provides free, accurate pregnancy testing administered by professionals free of charge. You can visit us to confirm your pregnancy with a highly sensitive pregnancy test.
An Ultrasound
A positive pregnancy test cannot tell you all you need to know about your pregnancy. The FDA shares that medical abortion is only recommended for women through 10 weeks of pregnancy. Safeguard your health by going about an ultrasound to confirm:
- How far along you are (gestational age)
- The location of your pregnancy (if it’s growing within the uterus)
- The viability of your pregnancy (if there’s a heartbeat & is progressing)
If you test positive with a pregnancy test at the Crossroads Care Clinic, you will be offered a free limited ultrasound to confirm these pregnancy details.
