Brief Answer:
urine pregnancy test advised

Detailed Answer:
Hello sir, thanks for trusting health care magic.
I would like to advice you a urine pregnancy test and can advise you according to the reports because in case positive then she will first need to terminate the pregnancy and then start with contraception for future.
Just do the test and then we will manage the next step.
