Dr. Joseph Valenti answered

Specializes in Obstetrics and Gynecology

Dont worry: Try to know when you are ovulating (mid-cycle or day 14) and try coitus every other day the 3 days before and after that day. Your chances of conceiving in any one cycle are 17-20%. It is not a problem unless you try this for one year (12 cycles) and don't conceive.
