Why do I need an ultrasound?

Ultrasound has the ability to show you if your pregnancy is viable, how far along you are, and the placement of your pregnancy. It can also reveal any pregnancy concerns like a miscarriage or ectopic pregnancy which could be life-threatening. Learn more here.

When should I get an ultrasound?

If you just found out that you’re pregnant, please give us a call to schedule an appointment. While a pregnancy test does have the ability to confirm if you are pregnant, an ultrasound is necessary to confirm viability. An ultrasound will help determine:

  • Gestational age (how far along you are)
  • Viability (pregnancy is in the uterus and a fetal heartbeat is detected)
  • Single vs. multiple pregnancy (ex. twins)

We can usually schedule an appointment for you within a week at any one of our locations. Text us at 517-618-1753 or call us at 517-484-1882 today to schedule a free and confidential ultrasound.

How do I prepare for my appointment, and do I need to bring anything?

  • Unless otherwise specified, plan to be here for 20 – 30 minutes.
  • If you’re coming for an ultrasound, please drink 24 ounces of water 1 hour before you come.
  • All services are free and confidential.

Do I need to provide insurance information?

No, all of our services are free, and no insurance is needed.

Will you report any information to my parents/school/insurance?

No. Your visit is completely confidential. No information of your visit is released without your written consent. All records are kept confidential to the extent allowed by law. SP Women’s Center is required by law to report cases of sexual/physical abuse of a minor.

What are my options?
