Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Hello doctor, I have been trying to get pregnant. I have been catching the ovulation days, taking prenatal vitamins, and making sure I m completely healthy for pregnancy. It s seems that it s not working at all. So please tell me what s wrong, what am I doing wrong, and how can I get pregnant?
Hi, I think you should go for evaluation first. Do a thyroid profile and prolactin level and a ultrasound done to see uterus and ovaries. If everything is fine and you are ovulating normally, you can try naturally for 6 months to one year. Be in contact with your husband every 2 to 3 days after your periods stop. It will increase chance of pregnancy. If it doesn't work, you can take some medicines like clomiphene for inducing ovulation and track your follicles growth by repeated ultrasound and when follicle is more than 17 to 18 mmm, take injection for rupture. Be in contact with your husband for next 2 to 3 days. Take progesterone like susten or duphaston for next 2 weeks. Do a urine pregnancy test after that. You can try like that for 3 to 6 cycles. Hope it helps.
