# Can I use the Teal Wand if I am trying to get pregnant or undergoing fertility treatments?

As long as you are not currently pregnant or within 6 weeks of having delivered, you can collect with the Teal Wand. If you are undergoing fertility treatments or think you may become pregnant by the time your Teal screening box arrives at your home (usually within a week from when it is prescribed by the Teal provider), we recommend seeking prenatal care with a local provider, who can also perform your cervical cancer screening during your pregnancy.
