Pregnancy Test
At Pregnancy Resource Clinic, we offer self-administered and Registered Nurse administered urine pregnancy tests. The test is easy and you can make an appointment by calling us today or by using the contact form on the right.
How does it work? The pregnancy test detects the presence of human chorionic gonadotropin (“hCG”), which appears in urine very early during pregnancy. HCG is a hormone initially produced by the zygote shortly after conception and is secreted into the urine. The pregnancy test contains antibodies which specifically react with this hormone.
Our tests are accurate 7-10 days after conception. Based on the findings of your pregnancy test result, we may suggest you return for a re-test to rule out a false-negative test.

Pregnancy Ultrasound
The ultrasounds we offer provide you with several areas of knowledge regarding you and the health of your pregnancy. A Registered Diagnostic Medical Sonographer (RDMS) will perform a limited obstetric ultrasound. The purpose of your ultrasound is to:
– Determine the presence of a viable intrauterine pregnancy
– Determine gestational age
– Detect fetal cardiac activity
It is important to have an ultrasound to rule out an ectopic pregnancy. If it is determined that you are pregnant with an ectopic pregnancy, which is a pregnancy not located within the uterus, we will refer you to the nearest emergency room for medical help. Also, you will be informed of the gestational age of your pregnancy. If a heart beat is visible, a heart rate will be provided to you as well. Knowing these specific details will help you make informed decisions about your pregnancy.
If we are unable to determine a viable pregnancy, we may invite you to return to our office one to two weeks later. We may refer you to the nearest emergency room or a local OB/GYN office for further treatment.
The purpose of the ultrasound is not to determine gender or diagnose any abnormalities, nor is the ultrasound provided for entertainment purposes.
Your ultrasound scan will be reviewed by a licensed OB/GYN.
Pregnancy Resource Clinic does not provide information on the ultrasound photos in order for a client to obtain an abortion.
