Hi doc, i am 36 years old and have a son of 8years and want to have another child.my menstrual cycle is normal do i need medication to conceive?

Probably not: It sounds like you are in good health and are still far away from menopause. After age 35 genetic counseling is recommended because there is a higher risk for certain diseases in the baby. Generally you wouldn't start with fertility medication until after one year of trying to get pregnant. Talk to your doctor about your concerns. Best wishes and good luck!
