Brief Answer:
Keep trying for minimum one year

Detailed Answer:

Hello,

5 months period is a short time to try for pregnancy. You see, each month we have just one chance to conceive.
Since investigations and medicines are expensive, time consuming and can have side effects, it is suggested that a couple should try for a minimum of one year before seeking medical help.
Since your periods are regular and high probability that your husband will also be normal, we should give nature a chance.
Kindly do not panic and run around for medical help.

Since you are trying to conceive, kindly take regular folic acid and iron supplements, so that the baby has normal neurological development.

Hope this helps. Let me know if I can assist you further.
