Why Aren't I Pregnant
Kirsty asks:
Me & my boyfriend have been having sex for the past year. Never used protection but I can't seem too fall pregnant?.. what is wrong?
Falling pregnant can take time, on average, 20% of all couples trying to get pregnant will not conceive in the first year of trying. So be patient and keep trying.
You are most fertile when you are ovulating, about 14 days before your period.
If you can predict the date of ovulation, it is wise to abstain from intercourse for a few days beforehand to allow your partner's sperm count to be high when you are most fertile.
Falling pregnant can take time but go and see your GP to rule out any fertility problems.
