We have been trying for 7 months and every period feels so disappointing. My cycles are regular, still it is not happening. When did you decide to see a fertility doctor?
If you have been trying for a while without luck, dont just keep wondering, get it checked properly. Many couples take several months normally. But if its been over a year, or you have irregular cycles, see a doctor sooner. And remember its not always the woman's side, both should get tested.
There are so many possible reasons, irregular ovulation, PCOS, thyroid, timing of intercourse, or factors on the partner's side too. With my PCOS it took time and the right guidance. I wouldnt self diagnose, a gynac can do a few simple tests to find the actual reason for you.
First, please be gentle with yourself, not conceiving right away does not mean something is wrong with you. There can be many reasons like timing, ovulation, hormones, or sometimes nothing obvious at all. We tried for a long time before our journey worked. A fertility checkup for both partners really helps instead of guessing alone.
I totally understand how heavy this feels, the waiting and the questions can really wear you down. There isnt one single answer, it can be timing, health, stress, so many things. Please dont carry the blame alone. A kind doctor and getting both of you checked is the most loving step you can take.
We are in the same boat and it does get disheartening some months. From what my doctor told me, it can take healthy couples several cycles, so a few months is often normal. But if its dragging on, getting checked together gives clarity instead of overthinking. Hugs to you.
Beta dont let relatives' comments pull you down, everyone has an opinion. Family will say so many things but the real reasons need a doctor, not advice from neighbours. Track your cycle, stay calm, and let a gynac guide you both. It often works out with the right help.
