Pregnancy Tests

How Does a Pregnancy Test Work?

Even the most uncomplicated pregnancy will involve a number of tests, from the initial pregnancy test to screenings for disease to others that mean little to you, but a great deal to your medical practitioner. Also, learn about home pregnancy tests as well as online pregnancy tests. See Pregnancy Test page.

Unplanned Pregnancy

Unplanned Pregnancies

An unplanned pregnancy often creates a crisis, making it difficult to focus on the future. Unplanned pregnancy is not unique to young, unmarried women. It occurs within marriage and in older women, and it can create a crisis in every life. See Unplanned Pregnancy page.

Crisis Pregnancy

Support in a Crisis Pregnancy

A woman who finds herself having to deal with a crisis pregnancy needs to find a place to turn for support and guidance. When you find yourself pregnant, you already have a lot of physical as well as emotional changes going on. Add to that the stresses of not knowing what your options are and where to turn, and a crisis pregnancy can be a very traumatic experience. Because of this, it is very important that every woman realizes that there are all kinds of wonderful places where she can go for support and to talk with people who are more than willing to help. See Crisis Pregnancy page.
