A 30-year-old member asked:
Obgyns or fertility specialists: does only having sex o-2 give you the same odds of conceiving as having sex, say, o-3, o-2, o-1? trying to figure out if i can consider us to have tried the last few months when we only hit one of the fertile days?

If you do not get pregnant after a year of unprotected sex, you should consider consulting a fertility specialist.

The eggs are: able to travel to the remaining tube regardless of which side from which they are released. So, no reason to skip months at all.
