Free Limited Ultrasound
Confirm the viability of your pregnancy to help you choose
your next steps.
Why do I need an ultrasound?
An ultrasound helps confirm several things you need to know before moving forward in your pregnancy decision. They determine two key things about your pregnancy: viability and gestational age.
A limited ultrasound will help determine if the pregnancy is placed in the uterus, date your pregnancy, and detect fetal heartbeat if present.
What is Pregnancy Viability?
Gestational age is how far along you are in your pregnancy. An ultrasound can help confirm how many weeks pregnant you are. Knowing how far along you are helps determine what pregnancy options are available to you, especially if you are considering abortion.
What is Gestational Age?
A pregnancy is viable if it is growing at an expected rate and has a heartbeat. An ultrasound can confirm viability and rule out a possible miscarriage. If you have a non-viable pregnancy, an elective abortion is not necessary.

Do I need an ultrasound if I’m considering an abortion?

A pregnancy can end without you realizing it. Approximately 15-20% of pregnancies end on their own before 12 weeks. [1] An ultrasound can determine if you are having a miscarriage.
