3 years and yet no baby

My fiancé and I have been trying to have a baby for the past 3 years and nothing has happened yet. I have been to the OB/GYN and he’s has prescribed me with some pills that would help reduce the birth defect. We have been disappointed in the past years when we thought we were pregnant. I don’t want to gross anyone out but this is my situation. We have the best sex ever its great, the thing is when he ejaculates inside it just seems that his sperm just runs right out of me and im still not sure why. (Please dont laugh I have been thru so much already your my last hope) I really need answers so please if you know anything fill free to give me advice.

I almost hesitate to ask, because I'm not a fertility expert, but what do you mean she gave you pills to reduce the birth defect? Do you have genetic diseases that run in your family?

I have a feeling that you're talking about some kind of fertility drugs...these work, (as I understand it) by increasing the number of ova your ovaries release. This gives sperm a greater chance of fertilizing an egg. As for advice, has your fiance had his sperm count tested? They test for number of sperm, sperm motility (how well it moves) and viability (how likely the average sperm is to fertilize an egg). If he has problems with his sperm, you would be better off with In Vitro Fertilization.

Some things you can do yourself: Have sex missionary style--this allows gravity to help the sperm. After sex, lie on your back with your legs elevated for about five minutes--this also uses gravity to your advantage. Learn your cycles--your average body temperature increases one degree during ovulation--careful charting can help you figure out when you are ovulating. Also, they have tests you can buy at the pharmacy that are sort of like pregnancy tests, only they'll tell you when you're most fertile and most likely to conceive. Also, there's nothing like repetition--every time you have sex increases your chances... hope this helps

He may have just put her on folic acid, which is standard these days when someone is trying to get pregnant.

Try elevating your pelvis and legs, on a pillow or something, and just relax for about 30 minutes after sex. Yes, much of the ejaculate will still run out (this is normal), but it contains millions of sperm and if you are ovulating, you produce a special mucus that allows the sperm to swim into the uterus and up the fallopian tubes. It only takes one. Makes sure you are timing sex with ovulation though.

However, after 3 years, chances are you or your partner have a fertility issue and need to be tested. Blocked tubes, sperm problems, ovulatory issues, there are any number of things that cause infertility.

steviebeezie agrees: That would make sense (folic acid) since it does reduce birth defects

If your guy wears briefs try to get him to change to boxers. Hot showers and hot tubs also decrease sperm count. Have sex every other day to increase sperm fertility. I would also recommend this site.
Ovulation Calendar and Ovulation Chart - FertilityFriend.com
It help me and now I have twins. I can't guarantee that it will help you conceive but it will help you chart your cycles and see when the best days to conceive are.
