In a limited obstetric ultrasound the sonographer checks for three things: determine if the pregnancy is in the uterus, measure gestational age, and measure the fetal heart rate. Our Medical Director oversees the sonographers and reads the ultrasound scans.

A limited obstetric ultrasound does not diagnose anything beyond the three items listed, and will not reveal the gender of your baby. An anatomy scan, typically done around 20 weeks, is commonly done during prenatal care with your doctor.

If you are seeking medical services at RETA, you will need to drink plenty of fluids beforehand. Our pregnancy testing and certain STI tests are run through a urine specimen. If you are having an abdominal ultrasound, it is important that your bladder is full to obtain the best images and measurements during the scan.

If you are seeking an ultrasound, a transvaginal ultrasound may be performed if you are less than 11 weeks pregnant or additional ultrasound images are needed for accurate measurements.

Due to the individualized care given to each client, appointments are approximately one hour.

Abortion Pill Reversal involves using progesterone to reverse the effects of the first pill of chemical abortion -Mifepristone. Mifepristone blocks the pregnancy hormone progesterone to the developing baby. The reversal simply counteracts those effects by supplying extra progesterone for the baby. Studies show a success rate of approximately 66% for reversing mifepristone and continuing the pregnancy.

Progesterone is a safe medication, and is commonly given in pregnancy. For more information about Abortion Pill Reversal, go to abortionpillreversal.com.

Many fathers come because they are motivated to be better dads. Some feel unprepared for an expected baby. Some do it because they want to increase their visitation or custody time. Some guys are court- or probation-referred. Some just want to learn about issues that concern them or want to talk with another man. Men and fathers of all ages (with kids of all ages) are welcome to get connected.

Men are able to achieve up to 6 levels by attending a specific number of appointments and doing suggested family activities. They earn certificates of completion and store gift cards. Guys can stay involved as long as they want.
