Question 3

When is the best time to take a home pregnancy test?

Accepted Answer

Generally, it is best to schedule an appointment when you are late for your period. Urine pregnancy tests analyze the hCG (human chorionic gonadatropin) that is secreted shortly after implantation. If you've taken a test and it looked inconclusive, try again first thing in the morning.

Question 4

Is the morning after pill the same as the abortion pill?

Accepted Answer

Plan B, or the morning-after pill, is a form of emergency contraception. Emergency contraception is any type of birth control used after unprotected intercourse or contraceptive failure and it can be taken to prevent pregnancy. One of the most common emergency contraceptive pills is called Plan B One-Step®.
 
The abortion pill, also known as RU-486, induces a medical or chemical abortion and is typically taken between 4-9 weeks into the pregnancy.

Question 10

Why would I need an ultrasound?

Accepted Answer

An ultrasound is the only method that can 100% confirm a pregnancy and determine how far along you are.

If you are considering abortion, it is very important that you first have an ultrasound to see if the pregnancy is viable. Abortion costs vary depending on how far along you are, which can also only be verified through a diagnostic ultrasound.
