A member asked:

What muscle is just above the pelvis on a woman. is it normal for it to be hard in this area. my girlfriend is skinny and fit. worried she's pregnant?

Pregnancy is not determined by muscle tone, but rather via a pregnancy test. Fit or not, if your girlfriend has missed her period, take a HPT a week later. Use contraception to avoid pregnancy and STD's.
