You Have Options
At Oasis Resource Center, we want you to know we are here for you. We provide free pregnancy services, such as lab-quality pregnancy tests and limited ultrasounds, and we can discuss all your options. We are here to listen and answer your questions. You are not alone.
What we offer
If your period is late and you are wondering if you are pregnant, start with a pregnancy test. We offer free, lab-quality pregnancy tests, and your results are always kept confidential.
It’s not enough to have a positive pregnancy test and a late period. A limited ultrasound screening can tell you what a pregnancy test can’t. We offer free limited obstetrical ultrasounds.
Are you considering abortion for your unexpected pregnancy? Learn about the different procedures and physical and emotional risks. We provide the information you need.
Do You Only Serve Women in Troy, Missouri?
Any woman of any age is welcome to visit Oasis Resource Center. While our center is located in Troy, Missouri, we will serve any woman who visits us from any area.
This means if you are traveling by Troy, on vacation, or from another town, we’re here for you!
Is it Possible to Experience Pregnancy Symptoms Before a Missed Period?
Yes! Some women can feel symptoms before their pregnancy test delivers a positive result.
While you may be tempted to use an early detection pregnancy test, note the accuracy printed on the box. You’ll see that early detection tests are often only about 77% accurate six days before a missed period, and then the accuracy increases as you approach your missed period.
When is the best time to take a pregnancy test?
If you are wondering whether or not you’re pregnant, the best time to test is after your missed period. This timing will allow the hormone hCG to rise to detectable levels so you can receive an accurate result.
While some pregnancy tests claim to provide accurate results earlier, waiting will reduce the chance of a false-negative result. If you receive a negative result and believe you’re still pregnant, wait a few days and test again, or visit us for free pregnancy testing.
Why do I need an ultrasound?
Ultrasounds provide critical information that pregnancy testing does not. An ultrasound will tell you:
- How far along you are (gestational age)
- Whether your pregnancy is progressing with a heartbeat
- The location of your pregnancy
An ultrasound can rule out issues like miscarriage and ectopic pregnancy or point you to necessary medical care if needed. If considering abortion, your pregnancy’s gestational age will reveal your options.
Oasis Resource Center provides free limited obstetrical ultrasounds to provide this essential information to women considering their pregnancy options.
