Are you facing an unexpected pregnancy and need more clarity? An ultrasound is a key step in the pregnancy confirmation process. 

You will want to know where your pregnancy stands before moving forward with a final decision. We can help with our free ultrasound service at Branches Family Resource Center, coming soon Fall 2025.

Confirm Your Pregnancy Details

An ultrasound confirms three key pregnancy details to determine what’s next for you. 

How Far Along You Are

An ultrasound can indicate how far along you are (also known as your gestational age). While a positive pregnancy test is an important first step, it does not give you the details needed to know what’s next and what pregnancy options you’re eligible for.

It’s important to note that medical abortion is only recommended by the FDA for women through 10 weeks of pregnancy.

Your Pregnancy’s Viability

To move forward, you will need to confirm your pregnancy’s viability (whether your pregnancy has a heartbeat and is progressing). 

10% to 20% of known pregnancies end in a natural miscarriage. An ultrasound can alert you to this complication, which may require medical treatment to protect your health.

The Location of Your Pregnancy

An ultrasound will also confirm your pregnancy’s location. This detail refers to whether your pregnancy is growing within your uterus. Some women experience an ectopic pregnancy, where a fertilized egg implants and grows outside the main cavity of the uterus. 

Ectopic pregnancy requires medical attention right away. Treatment is needed to prevent further complications. 

Gathering this information is more straightforward than you may think. We’re here to help.
