FAQS

  • To know for sure if you’re pregnant, start with a lab-quality test that is over 99% accurate in detecting pregnancy hormones.

    At Life Choices, free and confidential pregnancy tests are provided by registered nurses, and insurance is not required. If eligible, you may also receive a limited ultrasound to confirm how far along you are.

  • On average, ovulation happens during a two-to three-day window in each cycle, usually about two weeks after your last period begins. Tracking your cycle can give a rough estimate of when conception occurred.

    An ultrasound is a more reliable way to measure gestational age since fetal growth follows a steady pattern. This provides a clearer window of when conception likely happened.

  • The level of pain a woman may feel during an abortion is different for each person. It depends on her body, her pain tolerance, and how she responds to the procedure.

    Pain can also vary based on the type of abortion and how far along the pregnancy is.

  • Yes! Pregnancy testing, ultrasounds, options consultations, classes, and abortion recovery are always free and confidential.

    STD testing and treatment have a small $20 fee, but no insurance is required for any service.

  • All services at Life Choices are private and confidential for every age. You can come on your own or choose to bring a parent, partner, or friend. It’s completely up to you.

  • Life Choices does not offer or refer for abortions or birth control. Information is provided as an educational service to help you make informed choices.

    Sorting through your options can feel overwhelming. If you need a safe, confidential place to talk and get answers, schedule an appointment or text us anytime. A nurse is available 24/7, and no question is off limits.
