What to do if you think you may be pregnant...
Pregnancy Tests
If a young woman is late in having a period she may be pregnant. A free pregnancy test is available from doctors and family planning clinics, or they can be bought from chemists. In most cases a pregnancy test is reliable from the first day of a missed period but shouldn’t be used before as the result may not be reliable. Although not essential it is recommended that an early morning sample is used for the test.

If you are pregnant, there are a number of options available that will need careful consideration:
  • having the baby
  • abortion
  • adoption

For more information about these options contact your local family planning clinic or bpas (British Pregnancy Advisory Service). These services provide a pregnancy counselling service that explores all options available and assists young people to decide which option is best for them.
    There are a range of services across Warwickshire that offer Pregnancy Testing and Counselling Services that are not listed on this site.
