Be patient: Usually we say a women who is unable to conceive after 1 year of unprotected intercourse needs evaluation. You still have some time yet. Are you under- or over weight? Are you an athlete? Are your periods regular? All are factors in conception. Eat a healthy diet with lots of fruits or vegetables and adequate protein. Best of luck. Thanks for trusting HealthTap!

Be patient: It often takes several cycles of mid-cycle sex to become pregnant. Most couples seeking to conceive are not successful after only three cycles. If a year goes by without success, that's when to start discussing it with your doctor. Look at the bright side: several months of great sex coming up!
