Our Free Pregnancy Services
The Women’s Clinic of Atlanta is prepared to meet you with compassion, expert care, and the resources you need to ensure you make the right decision for you.
Early Detection Pregnancy Testing
In addition to free of charge pregnancy testing, this service includes a health screening with our licensed medical professionals who specialize in women’s sexual health.
A urine pregnancy test is a very reliable method of assessing for pregnancy. The presence of hCG typically indicates pregnancy 10 days after fertilization of the egg and attachment to the uterine wall. Most people schedule a urine pregnancy test around the time of a missed period.
In rare instances, a blood pregnancy test can be a reliable method of assessing for pregnancy; however, these tests are performed only in specific circumstances. The test looks for a hormone called hCG (Human Chorionic Gonadotropin). The presence of this hormone typically indicates pregnancy and can be detected 6 days after conception. A blood test is not routinely performed to diagnose a pregnancy, but it may be available based on medical assessment.
Our experts will also connect you to community resources for additional care, if necessary.
What to Do If You Are Facing an Unplanned Pregnancy
An unwanted pregnancy can be intimidating to face alone. If your pregnancy test is positive, our team is here to support you with educational resources and medical services. We also offer abortion screenings to assist women in making a choice about their pregnancies.
Proof of Pregnancy for Medicaid
If you believe you are pregnant, in the state of Georgia, you may be eligible for Medicaid coverage immediately. Patients who receive a positive pregnancy test at one of our clinics can receive assistance in reference to the Medicaid application process. Our Social Services team is well versed in reference to completing the necessary forms and ensuring the required documents are included when completing the application.
First Trimester Limited Ultrasound
Our free limited ultrasound is offered to medically qualified patients. For someone considering abortion, the free ultrasound ensures the pregnancy is viable, and determines the gestational age, which will determine the type of abortion one may be eligible to receive.
For someone considering placing the child for adoption or parenting, we might be able to provide a free ultrasound to qualifying patients to give an estimated gestation age of the pregnancy, which is the first step to healthy prenatal care. We currently are unable to provide full prenatal care, which is vitally important. Full prenatal care includes regular check-ups that allow doctors or midwives to treat and prevent potential health problems throughout the course of the pregnancy and promotes healthy lifestyles that benefit both mother and child.
Mothers who are planning to carry to term and deliver their child may be seen, but the appointments are often schedule two weeks or so out due to limited openings, to ensure women who are still considering their options can be seen sooner for their time sensitive appointments.
Pre-Pregnancy Care
Our pre-pregnancy appointment includes a sexual health screening, education on healthy tips during pregnancy, and prenatal vitamins.
