At what point do you go to the doctors?

Question

Hi everyone, 
I hate to complain because I know some people try for years. But hubby and I have been trying for 9 months with nothing. At what point should we go see our doctors? We’re both healthy, exercise daily, don’t do drugs, don’t drink an excess, take our vitamins, regular period ect. Yet we can’t seem to get pregnant. Should I visit the doc or wait?

Answer

Under 35 1 year over 35 6 months

Answer

You can go whenever you want. Might be good to get preliminary blood tests done. That’s what I did and it looks like some of my levels are off. Glad I went in otherwise I’d be trying for who knows how long on my own when I really need to be on hormones most likely

Answer

If it’s something that you think is a problem I would go. Nothing wrong with getting help from a doctor

Answer

I’ve been trying for well over 18 months with nothing. I don’t know what to even tell the doctor or what they do to test for this :(

Answer

Did you know 80% of couples under 35 take between 6 months and a year to get pregnant? You sound fairly normal to me! After a full year is up you need to go (6 months if over 35) but you should be having regular visits with your obgyn since you are ttc and you should have all of your levels checked and he needs a sperm analysis. You can also get tips from your obgyn to speed things along. Take a prenatal vitamin and have him take a preconception multivitamin. This can greatly improve your odds. Also use preseed during ovulatory sex. That will help the little guys (sperm) get to where they need to go (the egg) and survive at a higher rate. I hope I helped.
