We understand that adjusting to an unexpected pregnancy can be challenging, but we have trained advocates and staff who are prepared to discuss your situation in confidence.

This time may be filled with uncertainty and confusion, but Lilli Women’s Center will be there to present all your options so you can make an informed decision. Our caring and compassionate team is there to support you along the way. You should never have to face this challenge alone.

When Should I Take a Pregnancy Test?

To avoid receiving a false negative response, a woman should wait a week past her missed period before testing. By waiting, she ensures the hCG in her system is detectable.

If a woman gets a negative response but does not get her period, she should wait another week and test again.

In cases where women do not track their cycle or have irregular periods, it can be challenging to know when to expect their period. In this situation, a woman can expect accurate test results two weeks after unprotected sex.

Why Do I Need an Ultrasound?

Ultrasounds are simple, painless, and relatively quick imaging tests that provide essential details about your pregnancy. They are vital in your decision-making process.

If you are thinking about the option of abortion, you will need to obtain an ultrasound as proof of pregnancy. Ultrasounds help to confirm the heartbeat of an embryo, if the pregnancy is in the right place, and help determine how far along you are.

The information will empower you to make the best decision for you.
