Am I really pregnant in Perry-Center, MO?

Pregnant?

Anytime you have sex, there is always a chance for pregnancy. At different times of the month the chance can increase or decrease, but because sperm can live in a woman’s body for a couple of days, it’s impossible to know what your chances are at any given time.

Many women assume that if they use contraception, they cannot become pregnant. Contraception, however, is not 100 percent effective and the chance for pregnancy is never eliminated if you’ve had sex.

One of the most common signs of pregnancy is a missed period. Pregnancy is not the only reason a woman might miss her period, but if she has had sex, the possiblility of pregnancy should not be ruled out.

Possible Signs and Symptoms

The signs and symptoms of pregnancy vary from woman to woman and even from pregnancy to pregnancy. Some women have no noticeable signs at all. The timing of the onset of signs and symptoms also varies. Early indication may include but are not limited to:

  • Missed period 
  • Tender and swollen breasts
  • Nausea, with or without vomiting
  • Increased urination
  • Fatigue (tiredness)

Other symptoms may include, but are not limited to:

  • Light spotting
  • Cramping
  • Moodiness
  • Bloating
  • Constipation
  • Food aversions
  • Nasal congestion
  • Headache

A: Most doctors recommend you take a pregnancy test after your first missed period. A test will not typically be positive prior to your missed period and will sometimes still read negative for days after your missed period.

Options for Women near Perry-Center, MO, offers a Full Pregnancy Evaluation that includes a free pregnancy test. If your test is positive, we can also provide you with confirmation of pregnancy and a limited ultrasound. These are steps that would need to be taken even if you went to a doctor’s office, but we provide them at no cost to you.

A: Many women purchase pregnancy test kits to use at home. If you have signs or symptoms of pregnancy, you may have already taken a home test. And you may be wondering about the accuracy or effectiveness of the test. We highly recommend that you confirm your results as part of a Pregnancy Evaluation at Options for Women. Call now for an appointment or make one online.
A: Home Pregnancy Tests are 97% accurate when used properly. Before using a home pregnancy test, ensure that the expiration date has not passed. Having a pregnancy test performed at a medical facility ensures the most accurate results. However, pregnancy and viability cannot be confirmed until an ultrasound is performed, and the results verified.
A: Depending on how you administer the test and how far along your pregnancy is developed, there is a small chance the result may not be correct. Although rare, there is a possibility that your test result is reflecting the wrong answer.
Our center does not provide or refer for abortion.

Questions and Answers

A: Walk-ins are welcome. However, it is best to make an appointment to minimize your office wait time. Please call 573-213-5115 or text 573-222-0891, or click schedule an appointment online and for information on abortion costs, click here.
A: Absolutely. You can bring your boyfriend, family member, or friend. We will talk with you privately first. Then, provided you have given us consent to have them in the room, your guest will be able to join you.
A: You’ll be welcomed by our receptionist who will introduce you to your coach. She will listen to you and provide you with information followed by a pregnancy test. Should your test be positive, an appointment will be scheduled with one of our nurses to conduct a limited ultrasound to confirm if you have a viable pregnancy and date fetal age.
A: Our tests can be performed 7 to 10 days after conception. A client with a negative result may be invited to return within 2 weeks for a repeat test if she has not had her period.
If you have taken a home pregnancy test, it is best to confirm results with a laboratory-quality test at our center or mobile clinic.
A:  We adhere to a strict privacy and confidentiality policy. Clients will be protected from disclosure of information that violates the right to privacy except when required by law, required for public health reasons, required to avert a threat of harm to the client or a third person, or when other circumstances may reasonably warrant such use or disclosure without prior authorization (e.g., abuse reporting, suicide/homicide prevention, etc.).
A: Our professional, medical-grade lab quality pregnancy test can determine pregnancy on the first day after your first missed period. We recommend you make an appointment if you have missed a period, have any pregnancy related questions, or think you might be pregnant.
A: On-site ultrasounds can be scheduled after an initial intake with one of our coaches. Our limited ultrasound exams are performed by a licensed nurse or RDMS (registered sonographer) and reviewed by a licensed physician. An ultrasound confirms a viable pregnancy. To qualify for a limited ultrasound, you’ll need to be a minimum of 8 weeks since your last menstrual period.
A: You can still meet with a member of our staff to discuss your concerns and review available options. An ultrasound is recommended to know if your pregnancy is viable and in your uterus, since 20% – 30% of all pregnancies end in miscarriage. Additionally, the ultrasound will give you an approximate idea how far along you are to determine what type of abortion you would choose. We can provide a limited ultrasound at no cost to you.
