Patient's Query

Hi doctor,

I am 38 years old, and we have been trying to conceive for a year now. I removed an IUD two years ago, and I am not on any medication. What should we do?

Please help.

Hi,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

If you have been trying to conceive for a year without success, it may be a good idea to consult with a fertility specialist or reproductive endocrinologist. They can help you determine if there are any underlying medical issues that may be affecting your ability to conceive and provide guidance on the next steps to take. I am suggesting the following measures that you and your partner can follow:

1. Be proactive about your health: Maintain a healthy lifestyle by eating a balanced diet, exercising regularly, and avoiding unhealthy habits such as smoking and excessive alcohol consumption. It is also important to manage stress, as high levels of stress can affect fertility.

2. Chart your menstrual cycles: Keep track of your menstrual cycles and look for signs of ovulation, such as changes in cervical mucus and basal body temperature. This can help you identify your most fertile days and time intercourse accordingly.

3. Consider using ovulation predictor kits: Ovulation predictor kits are an easy way to help determine when you are ovulating and are most fertile. Using these kits can help you time intercourse more effectively.

4. Consult with a fertility specialist: If you have been trying to conceive for a year without success, it may be time to consult with a fertility specialist. They can perform tests to assess your fertility and your partner's fertility and recommend appropriate treatment options, such as fertility medications or assisted reproductive technologies like in vitro fertilization (IVF).

Remember that fertility can be influenced by a variety of factors, so it is important to seek advice from a healthcare professional to determine the best course of action for you.

I hope this answers your questions.

Take care.
