Hello and welcome to Healthcare Magic. Thanks for your query.

Durian fruit contains a high amount of sugar, vitamin C, potassium, and the serotonergic amino acid tryptophan. It is a good source of carbohydrates, proteins, and fats. It is claimed to have several medicinal effects, but there is no medical evidence that it helps in conception.

You can keep track of the fertile periods in your cucle, in order to maximize the chances of conception. If you have been having infertility for more than a year after marriage, then it would be advisable to consult a gynecologist for a detailed evaluation.
Wish you all the best.
