At Choice Pregnancy Care Center, we believe every woman deserves accurate information to make an informed decision about her pregnancy. A pregnancy ultrasound is a vital tool for understanding your pregnancy and protecting your health.
Here’s how ultrasounds work and why getting one is an essential step before making any pregnancy decision.
How Pregnancy Ultrasounds Work
An ultrasound uses sound waves to create images of your uterus and the developing pregnancy. It’s a simple procedure performed by trained professionals.
During the scan, a small device called a transducer is placed on your abdomen or inserted vaginally to capture images.
Earlier in pregnancy, a vaginal ultrasound will be used because it provides a clearer image of the pregnancy.
Why You Need an Ultrasound Before Making a Pregnancy Decision
Whether you’re considering parenting, adoption, or abortion, an ultrasound provides essential information about your pregnancy. For example:
Confirmation of pregnancy
An ultrasound confirms whether your pregnancy is viable by detecting a fetal heartbeat.
Gestational age
Knowing how far along you are helps guide your options and next steps.
Location of pregnancy
An ultrasound determines whether the pregnancy is developing inside the uterus. This is essential for identifying ectopic pregnancies, which are life-threatening if untreated.
