Hi, you are trying for a child, had irregular periods.
Irregular periods could be due to anemia, and i usually prescribe ferric ammonium citrate combinations for improving blood.
Avoid sex during the first 10 days of the period, and have sex in the 2nd 10 days period, usually that is the period of ovulation. for women with regularly irregular periods ovulation is on the day 14 days prior to the next exected period day, and 5 days on either side.
thank you.
