Options
Every woman facing an unplanned pregnancy has three options: parenting, adoption, or abortion. It’s important for you to know all the facts about each of these options before you decide. In order to help you make an informed decision, Hope Resource Center can provide you with pregnancy confirmation, ultrasound, and STD testing. All services are provided at no cost to you. We do not require insurance or proof of employment. Call 865-525-4673 to request your cost free appointment.
Cost Free Ultrasounds
Ultrasounds provide vital information regarding the general health and status of a pregnancy. An ultrasound will tell you if your pregnancy is viable by determining if there is a heartbeat and if the pregnancy is located in the uterus. An ultrasound will also tell you how far along you are. This information may determine what options are available to you.
STDS and Abortion
If you are pregnant and considering abortion, it is important to be tested for STDs before making a decision. Any surgical procedure can be complicated by an infection. You may have an STD and not know it because oftentimes, symptoms are not present. If left untreated, chlamydia and gonorrhea infections can lead to pelvic inflammatory disease, infertility in women, and ectopic pregnancy. Call 865-525-4673 to request a cost free STD testing appointment.
