Hi,
I have a friend that says she was last intimate with an ex-boyfriend back in March. She is nervous because she claims that she thinks she is pregnant even though she has been on the pill for a year and takes it faithfully AND she has been getting her period every month since then as she is supposed to. I told her that the very fact that she is on the pill and has not missed a period means she is not pregnant. I told her to get a pregnancy test if only to calm her anxieties but she refuses stating that she is too afraid??????? The reason she feels she is pregnant is because she has been steadily gaining weight even though she is hardly eating and walks all the time. Is there anything I can tell her that might help her anxieties now? I would not concern myself with this but she comes into my office crying almost every day with same dilemma. Thanks for any advise. Lucy
