Trying to conceive : Previous surgery might be a problem. If you haven't already, i recommend seeing your dr for an exam & basic work up. From there, you may be referred to a reproductive endocrinologist, who specializes in fertility problems. I also recommend 'taking charge of your fertility' by toni weschler - website www.Tcoyf.Com.

Not the Mirena (levonorgestrel): It is normal to take 12 months to conceive. The Mirena (levonorgestrel) has no lasting ill effects on fertility. If you haven't gotten pregnant after a few more months of trying (having intercourse every 2-3 days around the middle of your cycle), see your gyn. Be sure you are taking a multivitamin with Folic Acid daily.

Need more info: It's doubtful your Mirena (levonorgestrel) iud is your reason for difficulty conceiving (unless it's still in?). Are you having normal cycles (implies ovulation)? Is your partner fertile (has children, no vas.)? Your surgery on your tubes may have caused obstruction or defective tubes. I recommend you see your gyn to evaluate your fertility, tubal patency (hsg, lh, semen analysis, pelvic us, or lsc).
