Bleeding during ovulation could be a sign of endometriosis, which can also cause fertility problems.

Hi there. I would recommend seeing an infertility doctor. In order to get pregnant, you need three things - regular ovulation, normal anatomy, and enough sperm. Your story of irregular bleeding might be due to irregular or absent ovulation, and this can be determined with blood testing. Your partner had a low sperm count and may need to be retested. Also, an infertility doctor can do X-Ray tests to determine if your fallopian tubes are open.
