I checked myself with the Dr. and said I was fine, also my husband. I am not taking care of myself against pregnancy, nor my husband is using condoms. I don't know what to do any more to get pregnant. Can someone help me?

Have the hubby switch to wearing boxers instead of tidy whiteys. And have him get a sperm count done. If he checks out, then make plans for a special vacation nine months from now with unrefundable tickets.

Get your husband to start taking Selinium with Zinc(vitamins)and when showering use cooler water when washing his testicals, thats what the top gynecologist and urologist in my city advised us whilst we where under the hospital for not conceiving. Having lots of sex is also not the answer I believe someone has already mentioned healthy sperm, smoking and drinking can also cause infertility (im not saying any of you do). The other thing to bear in mind is that it can take weeks or months for some and years for others, I have known of couples giving up trying after 10 years and then falling pregnant out of the blue.If you are really concerned after you have been trying for 2 years go see your Dr again and inform him that you would like to be refered to a gynecologist to be tested to see if you are ovualting. It has been many years since I went through this but im sure the process has not changed that much.As for your age I am in my late 30's and I would much rather go through pregnancy and child birth at 19 than the age I am.Good Luck

You're a little young to be having kids but as long as you want some. i think you're trying too hard...sperms need time to be "healthy." They say sperms need at least a week to be an ok swimmer. What that means is if you keep on having sex everyday the sperms aren't mature enough to be finding any eggs anytime soon. Give it time to mature, tell him to stop beating off and try again.

Also another factor could be drugs, stress these are all factors.. you could also try an ovulation kit.. tells you when you are most likely to get pregnant.. there are also (don't know how true this is but worth a shot) rumors of diet change and that can help you to atain pregnancy.
good luck

i think if you are so desperate to have a child, then either keep trying through sex or visit a fertilization doctor. the doctor could help you, but it might be very expensive. and look what happened with Octomom. it is common for people who use fertilization treatments to have twins, triplets or more because of the treatment method. so if you just want one child, it' probably best to keep trying the old fashioned way.
if both of you are healthy and everything is 'working', then it will happen!

Good Luck!
