Am I Pregnant?

Your body has incredible ways of letting you know when something’s changed—especially when it comes to pregnancy. If you’ve recently had unprotected sex and noticed a missed period, your body might be giving you early signs of pregnancy.

Early Pregnancy Signs & Symptoms
Every woman and every pregnancy is different, but there are some common physical and emotional changes that could signal the beginning of pregnancy.¹ You might be wondering:
-
Did I miss my period?
-
Why do I feel nauseous?
-
Why are my breasts sore?
-
Why am I using the bathroom more often?
-
Why do I feel so tired?
-
Why am I so emotional lately?
If you’re asking these kinds of questions, your body could be trying to tell you something important.
It’s also worth noting that some women report light bleeding in early pregnancy, which can be mistaken for a period. This is known as implantation bleeding and happens when a fertilized egg attaches to the lining of the uterus.²
How to Find Out if You’re Pregnant
Whether you’ve been noticing symptoms or recently had sex without protection, you’re not alone—we’ve helped thousands of women in similar situations find answers.
Pregnancy Test
The most reliable first step is to take a high-quality, lab-grade pregnancy test. These tests are designed to detect pregnancy hormones and are over 99% accurate when used correctly.
Our center offers free and confidential pregnancy testing. If you qualify, you may also receive a limited ultrasound at a follow-up visit to help determine how far along you are.
Ultrasound
An ultrasound provides important medical information. It can confirm whether a pregnancy is viable—meaning it’s not a miscarriage or an ectopic pregnancy—and give an estimate of when the pregnancy began. By measuring the size of the fetus, sonographers can calculate an approximate conception date and confirm the presence of a heartbeat.
