If you've recently had unprotected sex and missed your period, you might be experiencing early pregnancy symptoms. Need answers now? Chat with a nurse at [(319)-519-0072](sms:+13195190072).   ## Early Pregnancy Signs & Symptoms Every pregnancy and woman is unique, but here are some common thoughts you might be having:   - Have I missed my period? - I feel like throwing up. - My breasts feel tender. - I am getting up to pee more than usual. - I feel a little wiped out. - Why am I feeling so moody?   If you’re reading this, you’ve likely noticed some signals from your body that have you wondering, “Am I pregnant?” It's also possible to be pregnant even if you think you've had your period. Sometimes, you may experience “implantation bleeding,” which causes light spotting but is not a true period.   ## How to Find Out if You’re Pregnant   If you’re experiencing any of these symptoms or recently had unprotected sex, we have helped thousands of women with the same questions.   ### Pregnancy Test The first step in determining if you are pregnant is to take a[lab-grade pregnancy test](https://www.informedchoicesclinic.com/pregnancy-tests-in-burlington-iowa-city), which is typically over 99% accurate in detecting pregnancy hormones. As a non-profit organization, we offer low to no-cost, confidential pregnancy tests. Those who qualify may also receive a non-diagnostic ultrasound at their next appointment to verify the gestational age of their pregnancy.   ### Ultrasound [An ultrasound](https://www.informedchoicesclinic.com/ultrasounds-burlington-iowa-city) not only confirms your pregnancy but also verifies the viability of the fetus. Additionally, sonographers can measure the fetus to estimate the conception date.   ## Online Pregnancy Help If you need help confirming your pregnancy, getting a low to no-cost test, or even an ultrasound, Informed Choices is here to help. Simply text [(319)-519-0072](sms:+13195190072) to speak with a real, certified nurse who will answer your questions and walk you through your options. ![ICOI-logo-2014-update@2x-700x154-1-1](https://www.informedchoicesclinic.com/hs-fs/hubfs/ICOI-logo-2014-update@2x-700x154-1-1.png?width=317&height=70&name=ICOI-logo-2014-update@2x-700x154-1-1.png)   Informed Choices is accredited by the Accreditation Association for Ambulatory Health Care (AAAHC) \*Image Disclaimer: Some images feature models or have been digitally enhanced.
