writes: My husband and I have been trying to conceive since July, and so far nothing. I'm starting to worry there may be a problem. Should we go to the doctor or keep trying another few months?Also I noticed when my husband ejaculates most of the time it doesn't shoot out, it just sort of oozes out the tip. He's very well endowed and pushes it in deep when he's ejaculating, but could the fact that it doesn't come out with much force still lower the chances of it getting where it's supposed to be?

Hi, I understand what you are going through. Me and my husband have been trying to fall pregnant since December 2007. I went to the doctor just for a check up to see if everything is ok. I'm so glad I did this. We discovered that I had highgrade abnormal cells in my cervix (stage before cancer) Had an operation where they removed the part that was effected. Apparently afterwards you are more fertile. I also had sists on my ovaries (that prevents you from ovulating) this was removed by medication.There could be many reasons. My doctor told me the average couple takes about a year to conceive! My Dr also told me that in most cases the problem lies with the men, he could have a low spermcount for example and is also treated with medication.I'm not telling you this to scare you, but both of you should go for a checkup, it could be something small. O and take Folicacid tablets, it helps with the formation of your eggs.Good luck! I really hope you can have your little bundle of joy soon!

well, first of all were you on birth control before you started trying to have a baby. If you were, it could take up to 12 months for your cycle to regulate. And for you to start ovulating on a cycle.
Monitor your cycles. On a calendar each month. Once you figure out just how long your cycle is, you can find site online that will calculate your ovulation and tell you when you are due to ovulate.
What some people don't realize, is that you are only fertile for no more than 36 hours out of the month. 24 hours before ovulation, during ovulation, and with in 24 hours of ovulation. So, the window is not open then entire month. Check out this site below. It may help you pinpoint when your most fertile days are.
Keep in mind, that it can take a healthy couple, having regular sex, up to 18 months to conceive. So, track your ovulation, and have fun!

I wish I could help you but I'm not really an expert in this area. One of the things I would do though is talk to your doctor and tell him everything you've just told me, even if your husband is a bit embarrassed about it. Surely your doctor will be able to help you as to why you haven't had any luck conceiving. I hope this helped and I wish I could have advised you more.

I have also seen some very positive articles about acupuncture helping with 'blockages' and have really helped peoples fertility. I am sure things are not proven but it might be worth you investigating some natural options at this stage to increase your health and vitality.
