am i infertile??

So I've been trying to get pregnant for about 6 months now.. We've been having sex every other day religiously but still nothing. Is this normal for me not to be pregnant yet or should I be worried about myself being infertile?? Im only 22??  I don't take birth control or anything else so I'm not sure why I'm still not pregnant yet??

My cycles arent exactly regular but they are on average 29 days.. Usually between 28-36 days.  I don't think I'm that stressed? And I don't think it's him because he already has two kids from his previous marriage. Thanks for all the feedback and I'll try out an ovulation kit!

Doctor also told me that 90% of healthy couples will become pregnant within the first year of trying. So you still have 6 months before you should be concerned about fertility or anything. Chances are your perfectly normal and just stressed!

I am in the exact same position as you. I am 22 and husband and I have been trying for 6 months. The doctor told me to wait a year before taking further steps but suggested blood work, an ultrasound and ovulation kits. All turned out fine and I got my first smiley last week. Just jeep trying and if you suspect something is not right go to your doctor. Also try ovulation kits! I use clear blue ( easy to read and use) :) good luck!!!

Are your cycles regular and do they last between 28-35 days?  If so those are both good signs.  Remember there is also a chance it could be Him not you. If your cycles are not regular and last longer than 35 days our less than 28 then I would go to a doctor.

I am 19 and have been trying for a bit longer than that. Part of it can be stress levels. I know you've probably heard it time and time again, but its usually when you stop trying that you conceive. Just relax, have sex because you're passionate not desperate. Everything will be okay.
