What Causes Difficulty In Getting Pregnant?

Hi, I am 40 years old and I have a son of 2y and 9 months. My period is irregular since long time. My son was a result of an artificial insemination from the first time. It has been one year I am trying to conceive again and I have made until now 3 unsuccessful insemination. My doctor is telling me my problem is only bad chance since I have 20% of success each month. Do I have to search more for the reason or I have to wait only the chance knowing that I don't have a lot of time for conceiving.

Thanks for your advice

your problems are
1. age - at 40 years it is very natural that you will not have the same fertility potential of a 25yr old
2. irregular cycles
3. nearing menopause [stopping of periods]
4. your ovaries will not give quality ova , high chance of abortion, deformed child or mentally retarded child
5. i suggest do not waste money n hope n ,most precious TIME, go find some IVF centre like Bourn Hall/ CIMAR/CRAFT[kerala]
