How Can Pregnancy Chances Be Increased?

Hi Dr, I am 23 years old and I have been married for 1 year now. Since from November last year in 2013 up to date I have been trying for a baby with no success. After making love with my partner 2-3 weeks later I would have some cramps and always feeling tired, feeling like vomiting and painful breast. I always have a hope that I am pregnant but few weeks later I would see my period. What should I do to increase my chances of getting pregnant?

Hello, thank you for posting your query to HCM.

Have you been continuously trying since past ten mothns or did u give breaks in between? If you tried continuously since all these months, then I'd suggest you to get your scan done for PCOD, ovarian and uterine physiology along with a detailed checkup for thyroid and other hormones, And blood tests. Your husband also needs to be investigated in details at the same time. You could come back with all the reports to us, or you can see a doctor, with those reports.
Meanwhile do not lose hope and keep trying, as there is no hard and fast rule for the ratio of success rate to the no. of attempts in this matter. Some couples are first time lucky, and many others take much longer to get that positive on their pregnancy test. Also dont stress over it, as it hampers one's chances of conceiving. Both you and your husband must follow a healthy lifestyle, that includes a combination of healthy mind, body and soul (excercises, healthy diet and peace of mind). With this, you should also keep in mind the basic pointers like keeping your waist slightly elevated with a pillow after intercourse, and not immediately visiting the toilet etc.

All the best!
