All we can say is that your "friend" needs
to take a test.

Stretchmarks affect the skin. Veins are
underneath the skin. And stretchmarks are
not exclusive to pregnancy - they happen
anytime there's a dramatic growth.

My friend is also on the depo (whatever).
Lately she has been having symptoms. My
only advice to her was to take a test.
That's the only real way to find out. Bc
the symptoms for a pregnancy are not just
for pregnancy.

She's always had veins. As to why they're
"showing up" now... who knows? Maybe she
lost some moisture in her skin and it's a
bit thinner than usual. Maybe she's lost a
bit of pigment. Maybe they've always been
there and she's just now "noticing"
because she thinks she might be pregnant
and is reading too much into every little
detail of her body.
If she's having pain above her belly
button, that's nothing to do with
pregnancy. Your uterus is inside your
lower abdomen, right above your vagina.
It's not near your belly button. A sharp
pain on ONE side could be worrying - it
could suggest an ectopic pregnancy, which
means her baby is growing in her tube
instead of in her uterus. But pain on BOTH
sides? Not to do with pregnancy.
I don't think she's pregnant. I think she
thinks she might be, and is freaking out.
Tell her to take a test and relax.

no one judged you, it was just obvious it
was you. Pain in your stomach is not a
sign of pregnancy unless you're in labour
and are having contractions. It could be
many things, apendicitis, period pains, an
ovarian cist or nothing at all

Take a pregnancy test if you feel you are
pregnant. The symptoms you are talking
about are not exclusive to pregnancy and
can mean any numerous things.
If you are pregnant and these are truly
pregnancy symptoms, you would be far
enough along to get a pregnancy test to
show positive.
We've been giving you respectful advice.

ohhh
i wouldnt worry too much if you are on
depo
your using birth control after all however
you are always at risk of pregnancy even
with protection
just take a test or go see a doctor they
can help you out and give you a blood test

You said your bestfriend got pregnant on
depo but i thought it was like 99.9%
effective and I know of plenty of people
that have got pregnant on depo. But how is
that? But sorry for the missunderstanding
I thought some one was trying to be rude.

I've heard of a lot of women getting
pregnant on the depo shot actually. It's
99.9% effective only when it's injected at
the same times (I'm not sure if they are
every 3 months or every month-I've never
been on depo) But for example, if you got
a shot on Jan 1st and were due again 3
months later, the doctor gave it to you
mid-March...that would make it less
effective. It's kind of like when you're
on the pills how you have to take them at
the same time every day or they are less
effective...
Why not just go buy a test? You will feel
a lot better knowing either way. I think
you can even buy them online if you are
nervous about going into a store (some
girls are).

most birth controls are 99% effective but
also alot of women get pregnant on birth
control
the only way to guarentee you wont get
pregnant is to not have sex
anytime you have sex even while on birth
control theres a chance of pregnancy

The only time peoples posts may seem rude
or offensive is when people ask for advice
and answers and dont like what people have
to respond with and et defensive and a
fight breaks out.
You dont need to hide, a 'friend' is 90%
always the OP.
You can get pregnant on birthcontrol
although it is higly effective as a
controceptive it does happen. Same as
pills, IUD, or a condom!
Skinny or Heavy set girls pregnant or not,
stretchmarks can occur on a persons body
at anytime.
