Patient's Query

Hi doctor,

I am 31 years old. Last month I had periods on 10th and then we had sex on 22, 23, 25 as those were the fertile days. Also I am doing yoga from past 1 month. This my date was supposed to come before 10 as I normally get period before date. But got my periods today on 14th. Is it because I am doing yoga so I got my periods and failed to conceive? As initially in this month I was having frequent urination, sore breast symptoms but sadly I failed to conceive. Can you suggest shall I continue yoga and is it advisable to do yoga after having sex? Current medications: Folvite and Neurobion forte.

Hello,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

Nothing to worry. Smaller changes in cycle pattern can be hormonal. Yoga is good, it relaxes you, nothing to worry about. The cycle fecundity is 12 to 15 percent (means every trying cycle has a chance of pregnancy only 12 percent) it takes 1 year of unprotected intercourse for better pregnancy rate. No worries. Considering your age if the trying period is more than 8 to 10 months get a baseline TVS to look for ovarian reserve and also a baseline semen analysis for your partner.
