Hi
Since you had a pregnancy in the recent past your chances of conceiving again are high. But looking into your age my advise is not to defer the treatment for long.
If you have been trying for over 6 mtonhs its advisable to do the follwing tests-
1 Semen exam after 3-5 days abstinence
2 HSG(hysterosalpingogram)
3 FSH LH Prolactin & TSH on day 3 of cycle fasting
4 Tvs follicular study from day 10
5 PCT(postcoital test- performed 4-6 hrs post intercourse when follicle is >12 mm)
best wishes
