Hello
I've been trying to get pregnant now for more then 1 year.. it worries me that I cant.. my husband to be would really like to have a child and I'm scared that I won't be able to give him what he wants... well I want one probably more then him...
It would mean everything to me to have a little baby.
I would like to know what I should do... going to a doctor freaks me out, because then I will find out for sure if I can't have a baby.. so I keep putting it off..
Please I'm desperate can someone help me??
Also I bought ovulex and about to start it tonight, can anyone tell me if they succeeded with this or just tell me what you think of it.
Thanks a lot

If it has been a year you need to see your doctor.
Your husband needs to be tested as well... it could be his sperm and not you. Sometimes it has simple as him wearing to tight of underwear. The sperm are very sensitive to their environment.
It may take a few months to properly track your ovulation. It may not happen the same time every month.
Try also to eat healthy and go ahead take a prenatal.
Cut out caffiene, smoking and drinking (if those apply). Stop stressing about becoming pregnant it also isn't helping.
I can tell you it took me almost 4 years to get pregnant.
If for some reason you can't get pregnant there are other alternatives avaiable.

As jrb252000 said you should book an appointment with your doctor. It could be several reasons it is taking so long. Low sperm count,blocked tubes, lack of ovulation, simply bad timing and mother nature not cooperating, etc. sometimes you just need a little extra help with Clomid etc. I can tell you, if you are stressing, and wanting this baby really bad, that could be putting a damper on your efforts as well. However, sometimes, it just takes time. I knew some people when I was younger, that were married for about 15 years before they finally had a baby on their own. They had given up hope. She had undetermined infertility, and they adopted a little girl after trying for 13 years. 2 years later, they got pregnant, with her being around age 38-40. Imagine their surprise. So you never know, it may just take a little more time then you want it too. I suggest you and hubby both get a full checkup done before coming to any fearful conclusions. Good luck to you!

It might be best if you consult your doctor, or call, before taking the Ovulex. Just in case.

I definitely agree on the ovulex. You never know how you might react to it, and as far as I am concerned, unless it's a fertility drug or artificially implanted, its not going to get your pregnant. There are a lot of "get pregnant fast" scams out there. The best any of the herbal remedies can boast is to help you be healthier for when you do conceive.

Right on the dot rank. Many people think that just because something is herbal, it is natural and healthy to use. However, this isn't always the case. ESPECIALLY when it comes to pregnancy. So research and dr. approval is always key. Good researching
