While missing a period may indicate a possible pregnancy, it is not a guarantee. At-home pregnancy tests may show a positive result even if you are not pregnant, or a false-negative. At Rockville Women’s Center, we offer medical-grade pregnancy testing to determine whether the pregnancy hormone called hCG (Human Chorionic Gonadotropin) is present.
If your period is late by a week or more, schedule an appointment for a pregnancy test.
