An unexpected pregnancy can raise many questions and emotions. An ultrasound is a simple imaging technique that can help answer some of your concerns by unlocking details about your pregnancy. At Assure Pregnancy Clinic, we believe having clear, accurate information is key to making decisions with confidence.
Ultrasound is a vital tool in this process, and here are three important reasons why it’s a must before considering an abortion:
1. How Far Along You Are
Timing plays a big role in your options. An ultrasound pinpoints your pregnancy’s gestational age, which determines whether a medical or surgical abortion is even possible. Knowing exactly how far along you are helps you avoid guesswork and ensures you’re making a choice that fits your situation.
2. Pregnancy Location
Not every pregnancy develops where it should. An ultrasound confirms whether yours is in the uterus or if it’s ectopic, meaning it’s growing outside, like in the fallopian tubes. Ectopic pregnancies can be dangerous if ignored, so this step is about keeping you safe while you decide what’s next.
3. Check If Your Pregnancy Is Progressing
About 26% of pregnancies end in miscarriage, often without you realizing it. A pregnancy test alone will not tell you. Ultrasound reveals whether your pregnancy is moving forward or if you’ve miscarried. This could mean avoiding an unnecessary procedure, giving you a clearer picture of what’s happening in your body.
