pregnancy testing

Have you missed your period? Are you experiencing pregnancy symptoms? Perhaps you’ve already taken a pregnancy test at home, but want a second opinion.
Care Net Pregnancy Center of IRC provides free pregnancy tests so you can be certain you’re pregnant. Results are accurate and confidential.

- A missed period
- Increased urination
- Fatigue
- Morning sickness
- Sore or tender breasts
You can take a pregnancy test as soon as you’ve missed your period. However, taking a test too soon may give you a false negative. Your pregnancy hormones may be too low and the test cannot detect them and claims you’re not pregnant when you are. You may want to wait at least a week after you’ve missed your period to get a more accurate result.[3]
If your pregnancy test comes back positive, your next step is to receive an ultrasound to determine how far along you are and whether the pregnancy is located inside the uterus.
