Hello,
When you have been trying naturally for one year and succeeded to get pregnant, that means it’s the time to get evaluated. All that we need is
1) Husband semen analysis
2) Ultrasound to see if ovaries and uterus are normal and most importantly the antral follicular count, which gives us an idea about the eggs you have.
3) Hormones FSH, LH, TSH (prolactin if cycles r irregular).
If the above evaluation is normal then as your doctor suggested you need to take your Fertomid tablet and have intercourse from day ten alternate days up to the twentieth day of cycle provided your cycles are regular and yes knowing when you ovulated and the ovulation tests would give us more accurate days to have sex. Usually, in a regular twenty-eight days cycle, women ovulate on day fourteen, and even after trying this for three months you don’t get pregnant I would suggest you get fallopian tubes evaluated.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Avanti Sathineedi
