Posted on Mon, 16 May 2016
Question: hello doctor

We are planning for a baby now. last month we planned for the baby after a week of my wife's menses. During this one month period, she experienced some pregnancy symptoms like breast tenderness, back pain, legs pain ,tiredness etc. But after one month when menses were due and she didn't have it, she did pregnancy tests twice but the results are negative and after two days she has menses.

so please suggest what can be the reason of it and what to do next for the family planning.


Regards

Brief Answer:
Fertile period and folic acid

Detailed Answer:
Hi dear,
I have gone through your question and understand your concerns.
Possibility of conception in a single menstrual cycle is maximum20-25%, meaning that it is not possible to each couple to conceive in a single cycle.
One can wait up to one year for the conception to occur.
Delayed periods can be due to stress associated.
I will suggest you both to have intercourse in fertile period, which is from day 9 to day 22 of the periods, and be stress free.
Your wife should also take folic acid tablet daily as taking it in preconceptional period reduces the risk of congenital anomalies in the fetus.
Hope you found the answer helpful.
