Not great at all! The worst thing for me was when he said ''you look so overweight you're infertile''. He had NO medical basis for this as I was not there for fertility and nor had I had any tests. As a 23 year old woman, the delivery of this was disgraceful and I worry as to why he thinks it's acceptable to make sweeping statements like that without any data or tests to support this. I was also left very uncomfortable after I told him that I didn't want to be on contraception anymore and his first response was ''condoms will change your sex life, have you checked this is okay with your boyfriend''. Constructive points - don't say these things! It was detrimental to my mental health and as a doctor with 20 years experience, I dread to think of how many people experienced this. There's a way to deliver a message of being overweight and recommending contraception but that was completely unacceptable and I will never be going back to him again.
