To find out if you're pregnant, start with a lab-grade pregnancy test. It's over 99% accurate in spotting pregnancy-related hormone levels. As a non-profit organization, Birth Choice offers free, confidential pregnancy tests. Those who qualify can also receive a limited OB ultrasound to verify the pregnancy at your appointment.   [Read More](https://birthchoice.net/blog/am-i-pregnant?hsLang=en) - When did I conceive? On average, there is a 6 day fertile window during which you will ovulate. The egg will live for 12-24 hours; this is the time when your body can get pregnant during each menstrual cycle. This occurs about two weeks after your last period started. By calculating the time since your last period, you can get a rough idea of your ovulation window and, hence, when you conceived. Another way to determine the conception date is through an ultrasound. Fetuses tend to grow at a consistent rate, which means the age of the fetus can, quite literally, be measured. As such, an ultrasound can give a more accurate date range than an ovulation calculator.   [Read More](https://birthchoice.net/blog/when-did-i-conceive?hsLang=en) - Does abortion hurt? Just as with any medical procedure, the amount of pain you experience can vary from person to person based on how your body reacts to treatment and your individual pain tolerance. However, it's not only personal factors that play a role. The type of abortion you undergo and the stage of fetal development also significantly impact the procedure's experience.   [Read More](https://birthchoice.net/blog/does-abortion-hurt?hsLang=en) - Are your services really free & do I need insurance?
