bettas are egg layers, meaning they don't get pregnant, but females will periodically form and expel eggs even without the presence of a male.

i'm assuming you mean the you want a way to stop her from doing this? There's no way to stop her, this will continue for as long as she is able to produce eggs. Some females will reabsorb the eggs, others expel them, but it's natural and she isn't in any danger from it.
