irregular periods would be one of my guesses. this means that hormones are not secreted or excreted normally hence the abnormal cycles. I believe if its hormonal then its relatively easy to take care of.

Most common is the inability to get pregnant after having sex without protection for over a year. This means that there is something wrong and other external factors should be taken to account to pinpoint the reason for infertility.

Sarah's symptom was what clued us in. We have been married for 5 years and off birthcontrol for over 2 years and still zero. Of course we are now in our early 30's and we are both working so we thought it was just the stress. Now we are exploring treatment so that we can get pregnant!

Thanks Wells! That is really helpful!

I have had one misscariage. that was two years ago and I was 32 then. We have been married for 10 years and we have been trying to conceive on and off for the last 4. I am on fertility meds and supplements so hopefully this time I can carry full term!

If a woman don't get pregnant for almost a year of having unprotected sex, is one common symptoms that she is barren.
