Pregnancy information, counseling and options
Your choice to continue or end a pregnancy is just that… Your Choice. You can choose parenting, abortion, and adoption. Schedule an appointment at UHCS to speak with a clinician about your options. If safe and comfortable, we encourage you to seek support from partners, friends, family, and university or community resources. Keep in mind, you are the only one who can decide what is best for you. At UHCS we can discuss your options. Mental health clinicians certified in pregnancy options counseling are available.
If you are considering continuing your pregnancy some things to keep in mind: Avoid alcohol, recreational drugs, over the counter medications (aside from Tylenol). Eat healthy, give your body the sleep it needs, and stay hydrated. Start a prenatal vitamin with at least 400 mcg of folic acid (available over the counter).
