Pregnancy Testing
All of our services are free & confidential.
Life Options offers free pregnancy testing to verify your pregnancy. Our pregnancy tests are medical quality, highly sensitive, and provide immediate results.
Our pregnancy tests detect the presence of hCG (human chorionic gonadotropin) hormone which circulates in a pregnant woman’s body shortly after fertilization and is released in her urine.
A positive test (including a home test) is an indication of pregnancy, but not a confirmation. The test result should be confirmed by an OB Ultrasound exam. If your pregnancy test is positive, we offer a free limited OB ultrasound to help you learn more about your pregnancy and options.
After your free pregnancy test, we offer a variety of other services to help you. Our caring and compassionate patient advocates are here to listen and offer you support.

Make an appointment or walk in, and you will be provided with a free pregnancy test. Our lab-quality urine-based pregnancy tests will be administered by nurses, when available. If you request, you will be provided with a written “verification”; or in the absence of medical personnel, a “confirmation” of your positive pregnancy test.
Our tests are laboratory quality and 99% accurate. Urine-based pregnancy tests detect the hCG hormone in a pregnant woman’s system. Since the production of hCG can vary greatly from woman to woman, sometimes as much as 20 fold, time periods when a “positive” test occurs can also vary. Our tests can detect the hcG pregnancy hormone as early as 7 days after conception or 21 to 24 days after the first day of your last period, although some women’s hCG level is not detectable until at least one week after a missed period.
Yes, you may be rescheduled for second test, which is generally a shorter appointment because your paperwork has already been filled out. The hCG hormone concentration doubles approximately every 2.2 days during the first 3 months of pregnancy.
