When did you know something was wrong?

Question

When did you ladies know something wasn't working? After how many months / years of trying did you start <a href="https://glowing.com/glow-fertility-program">IVF</a>? What's your story?

(My hubby and I are both 22 and have not used protection (just pull out since last summer) and been actively trying since this January/February). We only have sex 2-3 times a week though and I am not actively tracking my ovulation with tests so I'm not certain we are even hitting the right days. Should I be more intentional with tracking? More sex? What's the secret formula? Lol we are ready for a baby!!! 🤗

Answer

when i conceived my son, we were newly weds and got pregnant in the first month. we had intercourse everyday and i wasn't tracking anything at all. I would suggest having sex every other day from period to period to start with then if that doesn't work then perhaps look into properly tracking your ovulation 😊

Answer

Its the right time and the right place. Healthy couples can take up to 12 cycles while actively trying. If this is what you want, get to know your cycles and what happens when, there's a small window monthly where you can get pregnant, if you dont have sex in the window, you're out, then there's only a 1 in 3 chance that you actually conceive. Not as easy as it seems.

Answer

To start ivf usually you have to be internally trying for over a year, have failed IUI or have reason IUI wouldn't work, and have to internally be tracking ovulation etc. this is not an option for you currently I would presume. 
If you want to start tracking it really helps. Get opks and take them staring CD 10 until you get a peak. BD every day of your fertile window. Use pre seed. You can also temp and track your bbt to see if you are actually ovulating or not. Of course you can just have sex every day or every other day too.
