Family planning providers in the Adagio Health network offer pregnancy testing and counseling services. This is usually performed with a urine pregnancy test but sometimes a quantitative serum pregnancy test (blood draw) may be ordered.
If you are trying to become pregnant, our clinical providers can counsel you about things to avoid when trying to get pregnant and maximizing fertility.
Basic infertility care is a core family planning service. Our clinicians work with you to determine potential causes for the inability to achieve pregnancy and make appropriate referrals to specialist care.
Family planning providers offer preconception health services in accordance with CDC’s recommendations to improve preconception health. Preconception health services promotes the health of women before they conceive. Good preconception health can improve your pregnancy outcomes.
Sexually Transmitted Diseases (STDs), also known as Sexually Transmitted Infections (STIs) can be spread from one person to another during sexual activity. While some infections cause painful symptoms, others show no early signs. Adagio Health provides basic facts online about common sexually transmitted diseases/infections, including symptoms and treatment. It is critical, if you are or have been sexually active, to get tested at your nearest Adagio Health location to protect your health and the health of those you love.
