We have been having intercourse almost daily. As long as its normal that's fine I have a 21-22 day cycle so I basically ovulate right after my period ends maybe that could be a problem?
Brief Answer:
21-22day period cycle is not a problem.

With 21-22 days cycle you ovulate on 7th or 8th day of cycle. In that case the most fertile days are Day 5,6 and 7. This is not a problem at all.
