Am I missing anything obvious?

Question

No success after 6 months TTC. I am 36 and husband 40. Is there anything in these charts that indicates something wrong? I’ll be reaching out to my doctor for advice but would appreciate some experienced eyes on these charts. Thanks so much!

Answer

Those charts look good. I’d recommend tracking cervical position and cervical mucus as well as urine LH too. The more info you have the better. Adding a sperm-friendly lubricant can’t hurt. I did all of those things and got pregnant the second month. I know we are two different people, but just getting more info could be the ticket.

Answer

Your bd timing looks great, you LP is long enough and your temps are in normal range (maybe pre-o are a touch high but nothing concerning). Since you are over 35, you should be able to get your doctor to run some tests since you've been ttc unsuccessfully for 6 months with properly timed intercourse. Hopefully you just need a couple more cycles. I would definitely suggest an SA for your spouse, CD3 labs for you to check your FSH, LH and estrogen levels, and an HSG to check your tubes. Good luck hun.

Answer

I don't see anything wrong. And if people tell you sex every day lowers your husband's sperm count, that is not true. My husband's urologist told us that. I'd recommend having your husband get his sperm checked first, since it's easier and see what they say. If he does have a low sperm count, there are some ways to fix that, and having sex every other day would be more ideal. We've been trying for 5 months now, and I'm still not pregnant. I've been tracking for 7 months total. It's hard, but the urologist also told us that it's about a 20% of pregnancy a cycle for a healthy couple. So it can take some time. I know, I'm getting discouraged too. I'm talking to my doctor this week to get some blood tests done to see where my hormones are at.

Answer

Your charts look just fine honestly...could be a number of factors really.  I would suggest going to :
Natural-Fertility-Info.com 
the site has literally everything you need to know about improving your fertility & more insight into potential issues.  
You may also want to get checked to see if you carry the MTHFR Gene Mutation...very common & can cause complications with fertility.  It prevents you from absorbing synthetic folic acid...  easy precautionary measure to implement, is taking a methyl-folate & steering clear of synthetic folic acid.  Also avoid using any NSAID pain relievers as they can prevent ovulation & implantation 
 Best of luck 🥰
