What Causes Female Infertility?

default
Posted on Mon, 9 Feb 2015
Question: If I have a regular period do I need to worry about infertility I keep worrying myself sick that I will never get pregnant because I am 39. I have seen my own Doctor and he is not worried. I have been sexually active since I was 27 and never been pregnant and never used contraception, but I have never had regular sex like once every month to maybe once every 2 months always with the same partner (my current husband). Am I stressing too much my GP says try at my fertile time so I have got a Clearblue Fertility Monitor to see if this will help.

Your opinion is valued very much. Many thanks for your help in advance.

Brief Answer:
Regular periods does not mean fertility

Detailed Answer:
Hello,

Regular periods does not mean you are fertile. There could be many problems causing infertility.

You definitely need to worry as you are 39 already.

Please get HSG ( Hysterosalpingogram) test for yourself soon. Get husband's semen analysis done.

These are basic tests for infertility.
