What Causes Delay In Conception Despite Having Regular Menstrual Cycle?
Hi, I got married 5 months ago, my age in 20 and my husbands 21.....we have been trying to concieve for like 4 n a half months now, my periods are regular, i or my partner do not drink or smoke or use caffine....we have regular sex, i also track my ovulation and based on that we have intercourse before and after i ovulate......i love kids soo much so thats why i have started having the urge to have them.I am really depressed, will i ever get pregnant? Is there anything wrong with me? Thank you
Well, it good that you know about your ovulatory cycle. However, to clarify please increase you frequency of sex from day 11 to 21 starting from the day you begin bleeding. Ovulation can be calculated by starting with the first day of the last menstrual period (LMP). Most women ovulate anywhere between Day 11 – Day 21 of their cycle, counting from the first day of the LMP.
A menstrual period can occur even if ovulation has not occurred and also Ovulation can occur even if a menstrual period has not occurred.
Therefore, please don't lose hope and keep trying. There are still a very long life ahead and ample of time. VERY IMPORTANT STAY AWAY FROM STRESS OF ANY KIND AND ALSO KEEP YOUR HUSBAND STRESS FREE. YOU MAY EVEN PLAN A HOLIDAY IN THE ABOVE OVULATION PERIOD.
