Pregnancy Symptoms

Are you really pregnant? A missed period is the most common indication, but it doesn't necessarily mean you are pregnant.

- Late period
- Tender or swollen breasts
- Frequent urination
- Nausea or vomiting
- Fatigue
- Lightheadedness or fainting
- Backaches
- Food cravings or aversions
- Darkening of the nipples

Our Women’s Center staff will provide you with a free laboratory quality pregnancy test. You will have the results during your appointment.

Call the Women’s Center location nearest you to schedule your confidential appointment.

How accurate is the test?
Our tests are laboratory quality. The manufacturer states the tests can detect the hCG pregnancy hormone as early as 7 days after conception or 21 to 24 days after the first day of your last period. The test is over 99% accurate.

Can I have a retest if my test is negative and my period doesn't start?
Yes, you may be rescheduled for another test. The hCG hormone doubles every 2.2 days during the first three months of pregnancy.

Should I see a doctor if I have a second negative test and have not started my period?
If you have concerns about missed periods and your pregnancy test continues to be negative, you should see your health care provider for assessment. If you need resources for health care, our Women’s Center staff can provide you with referrals.
