Hi there, I have understood your concern.
First of all do not worry.
Your ability to get pregnant depends upon the ovarian reserve or capacity to form eggs.
You can get certain blood tests done to confirm your ovarian capacity. I will suggest you to get blood levels of FSH, LH, PROLACTIN, AMH on second day of the cycle.
You can get it done 6 months before you plan to get pregnant.
Secondly, I will suggest you to opt for a healthy diet and regular exercise regimen. Include more portions of fruits, salads and vegetables in daily diet. Drink plenty of water in the day. Avoid deep fried foods, bakery products and refined sugars. Use of vitamin B 12 and Folic acid supplements is advisable at least 3 months before you plan to get pregnant. This helps to prevent many problems during pregnancy and delivery.
Please do nnot panic.
May God bless you with a bundle of joy.
I hope this answer helps you. Thanks.
