When should one seek outside help for fertility?

My husband and I have been trying to conceive for a little over two years. We have tried several "home-methods" to increase my chances of becoming pregnant, and nothing has worked. What I'm wondering is, when should we see a fertility specialist, and what will be the most likely course of action from there? It seems that two years is quite enough time to have tried and been unsuccessful...

  1. Try IVF from a good doctor since its been 2yrs now.

    IVF results in recent yrs are quite good,do it and by next month u should be pregnant


  2. i should think 2 years is long enough to struggle with this on your own and it is time time to start at least getting some fertility options

  3. Talk to your general physician.  He or she will know when to refer you.

  4. I tired for 2 years before I would go to the doctor to even speak about it and I waited that long because I was terrified that they would give me answers that I didn't want to hear! I already had a son but it just wasn't working this time. They say you should wait 12-18 months of trying to conceive before you seek medical help, this is really dependent upon your age as well.

    I would say go to the doctor and speak to them.  I am glad I went to my doctor I'm now the mum to healthy 5 month old lil boy!  

    So good luck and I wish you the best of luck :)  

  5. It depends on your age and you and your partner's medical histories.  I was 34 when we started trying and my doctor told us to contact them if we weren't pregnant in 6 months of trying.  

    The older you are the harder it is to get pregnant.  I am 35 now and still not pregnant.  I just had endometriosis surgery this past Monday so hopefully we will have a BFP soon.

    They can do some tests to see if there is a medical reason for not getting pregnant.  

    Good luck!

  6. u should go to dr as soon as possible,caz u must find if there is any problem or not ,if there is it take time to be ok ,so don't waste the time and go and take help,good luck
