Why Am I Not Able To Conceive With Irregular Period?

my periods are usually 3 weeks apart and last up to 7-8 days. my husband and i have been trying to conceive for almost 9 months now and nothing has happened. recently, march 15th to be exact, i started my period and it lasted about 8 days. it wasn't until april 21st that i got my period again. it's lighter than usual, i have extreme gas pains and i'm slightly nauseated in the morning. should i be worried?

Hi, I think you should go for a pregnancy test first. If negative, wait for your periods. You should also get evaluated for irregular periods. Do a thyroid profile and prolactin levels and a ultrasound for your uterus and ovaries. Also a semen analysis of your husband should be done. If everything is fine you can take some medicines like clomiphene for the growth of your follicles and track your follicles growth by repeated ultrasound and when your follicles is more than 17 to 18 mm, take injection for rupturing the follicles. Be in contact with your husband every 2 to 3 days after your periods stop. Take progesterone for next 2 weeks after the injection. Do a urine pregnancy test at home after that. You can try like that for 3 to 6 months. Hope I have answered your question.
