How Does an Ultrasound Work?
An ultrasound is an imaging technique that confirms pregnancy by using sound waves to create images of the pregnancy on a screen. There are two types of ultrasounds: a transvaginal and a transabdominal ultrasound.
Protect your health by confirming your pregnancy with an ultrasound. A medical abortion (the abortion pill) is only recommended for women up to 10 weeks of pregnancy, according to the FDA. Otherwise, a surgical abortion may be your only abortion option.
3 Reasons You Need an Ultrasound
Find answers to your pregnancy questions with an ultrasound after getting a positive pregnancy test result. Here are three reasons you need an ultrasound:
1. Confirm Your Pregnancy is Viable
A viable pregnancy means there is a heartbeat and the pregnancy is progressing. An ultrasound will determine if your pregnancy is viable and healthy. Without clear pregnancy confirmation, you cannot move forward with your options.
2. Confirm Pregnancy Location
Ectopic pregnancy is a complication some women experience, where the pregnancy grows outside of the uterus. If women experience this complication, an abortion is not necessary. Other immediate medical attention is required to treat this complication safely.
3. Confirm How Far Along Your Pregnancy Is
To determine what abortion options you qualify for, you will need to know how far along you are.
Ultrasounds confirm how far along you are so you can take your next steps with clarity.
