Am I Pregnant?

Am I Pregnant?

Your body is amazing—it often gives early signs when something’s changing.
If you’ve recently had unprotected sex and missed your period, you may be wondering if those new feelings could mean you’re pregnant.

Need clear answers? You can text a nurse at (318) 202-2021 for free support.

 

Early Pregnancy Signs & Symptoms

Every woman’s body reacts differently, but some of the most common signals that might have you asking, “Am I pregnant?” include:¹

  • Missing a period

  • Feeling nauseous or throwing up

  • Tender or swollen breasts

  • Needing to use the bathroom more often

  • Feeling unusually tired

  • Mood swings you can’t explain

It’s also possible to be pregnant even if you’ve noticed some bleeding. What may look like a light period could actually be implantation bleeding—a small amount of spotting that happens when the fertilized egg attaches to the uterus.²

 

How to Find Out if You’re Pregnant

If you’re experiencing these symptoms—or if you’ve recently had sex without birth control—you’re not alone. Many women have faced the same uncertainty and found peace of mind by getting tested.

 

Pregnancy Test

A lab-quality pregnancy test is the first reliable step. These tests are over 99% accurate in detecting the pregnancy hormone (hCG).

At Life Choices, we offer pregnancy tests at no cost and in a confidential setting. If your test is positive, you may also qualify for a free ultrasound to learn more about your pregnancy.

 

Ultrasound

An ultrasound confirms the pregnancy and checks important details like:

  • If the pregnancy is viable (still developing)

  • placement of pregnancy (inside the uterus)

  • gestational age (measurements of baby/pregnancy)

This information can give you clarity about your next steps and options.
