With pregnancy, ultrasounds confirm whether your pregnancy is ectopic (outside the uterus, which can pose a severe risk to a woman’s health), is viable, living and growing.

Ultrasound is also safe and often used during pregnancy. According to Mayfair Diagnostics, “Ultrasound has been around for over sixty years and is considered safe since there are no known risks and it doesn’t use radiation. It’s one of the most commonly ordered imaging exams since it’s versatile, portable, inexpensive, and can provide real-time information about the area of concern.”
