Hello, and I hope I can help you today.
First, I would like to advise you and your husband to relax about conceiving. 80% of couples will conceive within one year it having regular, unprotected sex. By regular unprotected sex, I mean having sex 2 to 3 times a week from the time your period finishes, until you start to feel premenstrual symptoms- which means that you are either already pregnant, or cannot conceive that cycle.
If you have regular menstrual cycles, and you are young, there is no reason to predict that you are infertile. I do not recommend the use of ovulation kits to attempt
pregnancy at this time. Too much
stress about trying to get pregnant can inhibit your efforts.
So I suggest you and your husband try to relax and let nature take its course. I recommend that you begin taking a
folic acid supplement, or prenatal vitamin, as these both are beneficial for conception.
If you and your husband try to get pregnant for a year and are unsuccessful, I would then recommend seeing a GYN doctor or
infertility specialist in order to diagnose what may be wrong.
I hope I was adequately able to answer your question today, and that my advice was helpful.
Best wishes and good luck, Dr. Brown.
