We are Pro-You!
Although pregnancy is a part of most women’s lives, it doesn’t always come at the opportune time. Maybe this is how you feel. It could be a bad time due to finances, complicated relationships (with either your family or significant other), or because you’re pursuing your career or school goals.
If this is your first or fifth pregnancy, remember that each pregnancy is unique. You won’t always have the same symptoms with each child. For example, one pregnancy could come with extreme morning sickness, whereas another pregnancy could come with excessive spitting (weird, but true!)
If you’re struggling with knowing what to do regarding an unplanned pregnancy or are wondering where to go to find the help you need, and you’re in the Huntsville area, we are pro-you!
At HPRC, we can help you confirm your pregnancy, go through your options, and help you make an informed decision that is best for you and your future.
What we offer:
• Pregnancy Testing
Our pregnancy tests are urine-based and measure the Human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) hormone, also known as the pregnancy hormone.
The hCG is created by trophoblast tissue, which is typically found in early embryos and will eventually be part of the placenta. Therefore, measuring hCG levels can help identify a normal pregnancy. Additionally, our tests are 99% accurate.
• Ultrasounds
An ultrasound will help determine if your pregnancy is viable, meaning a heartbeat is detectable. If a heartbeat is not detectable, it’s because your body is preparing for a miscarriage. Additionally, an ultrasound will show us that the pregnancy is in the uterus. A pregnancy outside the uterus is known as an ectopic pregnancy. An ectopic pregnancy can be harmful to a woman’s reproductive system and, if not addressed, can be life-threatening. Lastly, an ultrasound will help us determine how far along you are in your pregnancy.
• Options Counseling
Oftentimes, women think they only have one option, but the truth is, they have three: parenting, adoption, and abortion. We can go through each of these options with you when you make an appointment.
• Pregnancy and Parenting Classes
If you choose to parent, we can get you plugged into a class with other women who are in a similar situation. You can ask questions and build a support system through your attendance.
• Fatherhood Classes
If your husband or significant other isn’t sure about becoming a father, we have classes for him as
well.
You don’t have to be ashamed or feel judged! At HPRC, we are here to empower you to make confident and healthy life choices. Although we do not provide or refer for abortions, we can help confirm your pregnancy, go through your options, and assist you with your next steps. Again, you don’t have to do this alone.
