Wondering whether you’re pregnant can be a mentally draining experience. You need answers you can trust to move forward.
Before making any decision, you need to confirm a potential pregnancy. Sanctity of Life Center provides no-cost, confidential pregnancy testing services so you can get answers and learn your next steps.
Top Signs that you may be pregnant
For some women, it may be easy to guess that they’re pregnant, especially if they experience common symptoms like nausea or a missed period. But others don’t have any symptoms, or their symptoms point to another health condition, stress, and more.
Still, it’s helpful to know the top pregnancy symptoms if you’re wondering whether to take a test:
- Missed period
- Fatigue
- Frequent urination
- Tender, swollen breasts
- Moodiness
- Nasal congestion
- Constipation
- Cramping
- Food aversions
- Nausea (with or without vomiting)
Regardless of whether you have symptoms, pregnancy testing can provide answers if you’ve had sexual intercourse.
When Should I Take a Test?
Many women take at-home pregnancy tests to receive an initial result. These tests can be purchased at your local grocery store or pharmacy.
All pregnancy tests detect hCG or human chorionic gonadotropin. HCG is a hormone only produced during pregnancy, and it rises rapidly during the early stages.
Taking a test several days after a missed period or a few weeks after sexual intercourse is best. That way, you give hCG time to develop.
If you receive a positive rest, take a deep breath and remember that you still need more information. That’s where we come in.
