Walk-in pregnancy testing
Urine pregnancy tests are available Tuesday – Saturday and cost $10. Results are given in private by a CHWC counselor who can then address any questions or concerns you have regarding the results of the test. If the results of the test are positive, an appointment for an abortion can usually be scheduled at that time, if desired. Please call the Center for walk in testing hours.
Emergency Contraception
Emergency contraception, more commonly known as the “morning after pill,” is a contraceptive or birth control method that can prevent pregnancy immediately after unprotected sexual intercourse or contraceptive failure, but before pregnancy begins. Reasons for unprotected sex and contraceptive failure vary greatly, but some situations include sexual assault or rape, condom breakage, skipped or missed pill or not having access to a contraceptive method during the time of intercourse.
Options Counseling and Post-Abortion Counseling
Because we understand that the decision to terminate a pregnancy can be a difficult one for many women to make, we offer pre- and post-abortion counseling to women who request it.
Options counseling allows women to come in and speak with one of our skilled counselors about her feelings regarding her pregnancy and her options in dealing with the pregnancy including abortion, adoption and parenthood. These sessions are designed to give the patient the resources to come to her own decision without pressure from family, partner, or friends.
Post-abortion counseling is offered to our patients who feel that they need or want someone to talk to about their feelings after having a procedure at our facility. You can request counseling on the day of your procedure or you can call later to request counseling if you feel you need it.
For more information on services at Cherry Hill Women’s Center, or to schedule an appointment, please call the office at (800) 410-3519.
