Welcome to ehealth!

Are your cycles regular? Do you chart temperatures or use any opk's?

How old are you if you don't mind me asking?

My cycles are not always regular but I have used ovulation testers before. I have had sex when it said that it was the right time on the tester but I still had a period. I am 19.

You are probably going to hear this alot, but I'm going to say it agian, anyways. It takes a healthy couple up to 12 months to conceive. So while 8 months seems like a long time, you really shouldn't worry yet.

Do you use the ovulation predictors regularly? For how long?

How often are you and your bf having sex?

Well we usually try to try every day but sometimes that doesnt happen. We used the prediction testers about every other week. What is there that we can do that could speed up the process and that may help us?

You should be having sex every other day. It takes 48-72 hrs for sperm to mature. If there is a bunch of immature sperms swimming around it will take much longer. One of our ladies on here recently went to the doctor. She was told to bd on day 1,3,5 and 7, going off of a opk.

Have you started taking prenatal vitamins yet?

No I have not been taking prenatal vitamins. Where should I get them at and what brand is the best? Will those help me get pregnant faster?? And is there anything that my boyfriend can do to help?

Prenatal vitamins will not technically help you get pregnant. But they are always a good idea. You should ideally, start taking them 3 months before you conceive, or start ttc. Your doctor can write you a prescription or you can go to any major store and buy them. (walmart, target, cvs, and grocery stores for example). Prenatal vitamins aid your body in promoting a healthy environment for an embryo to implant and develop. It also aids in development which is important.

Are there any natural pills or vitamins that I can take to make concception faster or easier?? And could there be something wrong with me that could be the reason I have not gotten pregnant?? My mom had her tubes blocked I think before she had me and it took her eight years to conceive. I dont want that to happen to me and she said that it is not genetically passed on which I hope is true.

Hello, im 23 and me and my boyfriend have also been trying for about 6 months now. He does have other children from a previous relationship so we know he is fertile. i had to have fertility tests a while ago and i know i am fertile, but no matter what we do we still cant concieve. i know it takes time for a healthy couple to conceive but why is it that so many pregnancies happen on one night stands. i feel lost and as though something is missing from my life. Does everyone else feel that way?

what vitamins should i take to get pregnant easily?is fertility pills healthy?

Hi all, Im in the same boat as you all seem to be. I have been unprotected for over 5.5years now n ive never falling pregnant. Im 25 in Jan 09 i had a laposcopic opp which they found nothing wrong inside me (no cyst,block tubes,scar tissue nothing) N i thought yay they have blownin my tubes out so i should fell pregnant easier now but nope still no luck. Ive got a appointment on 10 June 09 to go back to my specialist to see what to do next. Ive tried taking fertily pills but still no luck. My partners sperm has been tested and that is fine.I always chart my days/periods. Oh golly what else can you do to get PREGNANT... I even lost weight because i was 85kgs n thought that may have been a problem so lost weight n now im 68kgs but nope that cant of been the prob...I dont know what else to do, does anyone out there have any ticks up there sleve?

with my first child, my ex and I have tried for nearly 2 years and finally gave up and our relationship wasnt going anywhere and thats when I concieved and gave birth to my first child. BUT now I have gone through 2 other relationships and wanted to have a baby but no luck.. one relationship we have tried 3 years and now I have been with my current fiance whom we have been trying a year and no luck.

Im the same way. My husband and I have been trying for about 4 months. I quit taking my birth control 5 months ago to begin trying and he has 2 other children so we know he is fertile. What can I do to help?? I tried take vitamins with the folic acid in them i thought that would help. Tried laying in bed after intercourse, everything but still no luck!!
