If you think you might be pregnant, one of the most important steps you can take is to get an ultrasound. While a positive pregnancy test is the first indicator, only an ultrasound can provide the essential information you need to make informed decisions about your health and your future.

At Clearway Clinic, we offer free ultrasounds because we believe every woman deserves access to accurate information and compassionate care.

How Does an Ultrasound Work?

An ultrasound is a simple procedure that uses sound waves to create images of your uterus and developing pregnancy. During the scan, a small device called a transducer is placed on your abdomen or inside the vagina, depending on how far along you are. The sound waves bounce back, creating real-time images on a screen that help medical professionals assess the pregnancy.

Why Is an Ultrasound Important?

Ultrasounds are essential for several key reasons:

1. Confirming Pregnancy Viability

A positive pregnancy test doesn’t always mean that you have a viable pregnancy. An ultrasound can confirm if your pregnancy is viable by detecting signs of life, such as a heartbeat. This is important because if you’ve miscarried, you will need follow-up medical observation to ensure you don’t face any complications.

2. Determining Gestational Age

Knowing how far along you are is critical, especially if you’re considering your pregnancy options. Gestational age can influence what medical procedures are available and when prenatal care should begin.

3. Checking For Intrauterine Pregnancy

An ultrasound can identify if the pregnancy is located inside the uterus, where it should be. If the pregnancy is somewhere outside the uterus (for example, in the fallopian tubes), it’s called an ectopic pregnancy. This condition is potentially life-threatening and requires immediate emergency medical attention.

4. Protecting Your Health

An ultrasound ensures you have all the necessary information about your pregnancy to avoid potential complications and receive the right care at the right time.
