At My Health Assistant, we connect you with trusted, local healthcare providers offering pregnancy test services near you. Whether you need immediate results, confirmation of home testing, or professional guidance, we make it easy to find and book a pregnancy test service with caring, discreet professionals in your area.
A pregnancy test detects the presence of human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG), a hormone produced during pregnancy. Testing can be done via urine or blood, with urine tests commonly used for initial screening and blood tests offering greater accuracy and earlier detection.
The process is simple and quick. A urine sample is usually collected and tested on-site, with results available within minutes. For a blood test, a small sample is taken from your arm and sent to a lab, with results typically returned within a day or two. The healthcare provider may also discuss your results, offer advice, or refer you for follow-up care depending on the outcome.
Pregnancy testing services are offered by a range of qualified professionals, including:
General practitioners (GPs)
Nurses
Midwives
Pharmacists
Sexual health and family planning clinic staff
All professionals available through My Health Assistant are trained to provide accurate results and supportive care.
You may benefit from a professional pregnancy test if you:
Have missed a period or suspect you may be pregnant
Want confirmation after a home test
Prefer a more sensitive or earlier detection method
Need documentation or support for pregnancy-related care
Want to discuss your options with a healthcare provider
There are two primary types of pregnancy tests:
Urine Pregnancy Test – Non-invasive and commonly used, with rapid results
Blood Pregnancy Test – Detects pregnancy earlier and measures exact hormone levels
Some clinics may offer digital or early detection options for added accuracy and convenience.
Pregnancy tests are very safe and carry virtually no risk. Minor discomfort may occur during a blood draw, but there are no lasting side effects. False negatives or positives can happen in rare cases, especially if taken too early—so professional follow-up is always recommended.
Choosing a provider for your pregnancy test is important. Look for:
Discretion and a non-judgemental approach
Medical qualifications and experience
Convenient location and flexible hours
Positive patient feedback
