Planning a Baby  Discussion Forum

hello all
i am 27 yrs old and have been married for a year and a half. we have been trying to conceive for the past 5 cycles, with no luck. my periods are regular at 26 days. and i mostly know when i ovulate because of abdominal cramps. for the past 2 cycles though, i have not been getting the sticky white discharge(though i do get the cramps and an elevated body temperature). is this a cause for concern? i am not stressed out in any way. my husband is a very supportive person and the two of us take things pretty cool and easy. Also it will be very helpful if any of u cud tell me after how many cycles (with no success) shud i go to a doc?
thanks Leigh replied. After a year of trying then you should seek advice from doctor. As for your cervical mucus, you dont want the sticky white, you want the clear eggwhite mucus. When you see that you are ovulating! Best wishes for a successful cycle! Archie replied. Dear Neetu,

Nothing seems concerning in your case.

Stay out of sex for first 8-9 days of cycle. If you have pretty regular cycles and are of 26 days then intercourse on CD10, CD11, CD12 & CD13 would help hitting success. Keep out of sex before CD10 and also from CD14 at least for 10 days.

You can try for a year before getting worried. This means another 7 cycles.

Take it easy, don't stress and give us good news soon.
