Hello dear,I understand your concern.In my opinion bulimia is a condition where in there will be malnutrition with vitamin deficiency.They might not have regular periods due to anaemia.So if the cycles are irregular the chances of pregnancy is less.So I suggest her to improve her general
condition first because if it is not good infertility and miscarriages are common.Improve the BMI by taking nutritional diet.Also take psychiatrist opinion.
