Hi

I'm new, I've been trying to conceive for the past 3.5 years now. I'm 38 and my hubby 43 with a son from previous relationship. I moved from UK to cyprus 2 years ago so taking that into consideration also. Any advice help or tips.

I have been to doc and am ovulating, tried ovulation kit which didn't work, that's why I went to doc and got tested. She said my body is very young for my age, whatever that means.

Any help gladly appreciated. thanks

try reading some of the posts in the getting pregnant forum. Theres so much info and tons of experience there.

Have you tried temping to know the exact day you ovulate? I hear that thats the one of the best methods. Then have sex 2 days before, on and after you ovulate. Since you are ovulating then all you may need to know is when.

Also has your husband been tested for his sperm counts? Since you are ovulating that could be an issue. Im no expert on this, this is just things I read and researched when I was TTC.

Good luck and keep trying!

I got pregnant right away at 35 (I'm 15 weeks now). All I did was have sex everyday as soon as I saw my cervical fluid like egg white and runny. That's it. Do not trust those ovulation prediction kits.

If you've been trying for that long have you considered getting further testing done on you and dh? If you're ovulating that's a good thing but it may be that there is something medicine can do to help.
