Hello, and I hope I can help you today.
If you have had three negative pregnancy tests, you are not currently pregnant.
You do have a history of irregular cycles, so you may just need to wait a bit for your cycle to come. The stress and anxiety about trying to conceive can even delay your cycle.
So- try to relax and just keep trying. Having intercourse every other day is actually more effective than every day, because it helps to maximize the sperm count in each ejaculate. If you do not menstruate for a while, I recommend doing a pregnancy test every two weeks. If you miss your menses for more than 3 months and are not pregnant, I would see a GYN doctor for evaluation.
80 percent of couples will conceive within one year. So try to relax and give it some time!
I hope I was able to answer your question today and that my advice was helpful.
Best wishes, Dr. Brown
