Lots of Questions

HVB
I am new to this forum.  I started to look for a support group to help come to terms with the fact that I might be infertile.  I have a couple of questions.
At what point are you considered infertile?
Do fertility drugs work?
What are my options.
I have a daughter that was concieved on birth control. My husband and I were shocked when we found out were were pregnant on BC but now even more shocked that we haven't been able to concieve.
My husband is in Law school so we are uninsured so I can't go and see a doctor.  I am just trying to get an idea if I should be worrying or not.
Thanks in advance!

I agree with Jen! Try using an OPK (Ovulation Prediction Kit) and chart your temperatures. That should help you understand your cycles better and give you an idea of when to have intercourse to up your chances.

You can learn more about charting and sign up for a free account at fertilityfriend.com. That's what I use :-)

Best of luck to you!

How long have you been trying?

Have you tried OPKs (ovulation predictor kits) or temping? These two things could help you at least tell if you are ovulating and when...

under 35 feritlity problem if 12 months of unprotected sex with no baby; 35 and over is six months

on the drugs:  yes and no...it depends on ur body and how it reacts to the meds

I do know that you can get Clomid online without a script but it has been shown to cause ovarian cysts so be careful.  Also try pre-seed with clomid as it dries up ur cervical mucus CM
