Q: 7 Yrs And Still Trying!!!

Hi - my husband and I have been trying to get preg. For 7 1/2 years now and now I am 32 years old and starting to get concerned. He has had a semen analysis done and everything was fine and he has a son from a previous marriage (which we have bee raising for the past 7 years) so we know the problem is not with him. I have had my hormones checked many times and I am obvulating just fine. I have a sono-hystogram, histo-salpinogram (sorry about the spelling) and a d and c done. They can not find anything wrong. If anyone can come up with anything that does not cost an arm and a leg please let me know.

Thanks -

Sorry the post is late. Stop trying. Have sex for fun again if your stressed about it your body can sometimes prevent the implantation of the egg. You can go to the pharmacy and talk to the pharmacist about ovulation kits, they let you know your most fertile times. Good luck
