I hate to say what every one else is saying, but "The average couple takes about a year to conceive." If it isn't going well after that, then you can talk to your doctor.

There is a link to chemo and infertility, but only tests would determine if that is the cause of your unsuccessful attempts so far. Here is a link to info on that:

I would have to agree, it will normally takes a lot longer to conceive.

Did your fiance's doctor say that the chemo might affect his ability to have children? I would check with the doctor first.

Also, I found that vitamins have an impact on conceiving. I read about it and even bought the vitamins on

Just give it time. Good Luck!

chemotherapy and some antibiotics cause infertility but mostly human reproductive systems are well protected against these on-slot. You tests will confirm the count and motility of the sperms. Even if the count is lesser by adopting and practicing certain methods the chance of conception is higher.

If your period cycle is 28 days you can have sex on 12th. 14th and 16th days
or 13th 15th and 17th days other days please abstain from it. Initially for one month have a relaxed and lovable life without having sex. From the second month follow the above days. Ask him to eat lot of almonds and wall nuts and you eat lot of fig fruits with pomegranate juice. Use inner garments only when you are out of home. Ask him to be free at home. Using tight inner garments reduce the ability of testicles bec they have to keep lesser temperature than our body temperature. Never ever go for hormone medications in the early stages bec let nature take its course. Avoid eating too much of meat especially chicken, have lot of citrus juices but avoid white sugar instead you can have honey. I will suggest few herbal tonics to improve the rate of fertility.
