First off you can't have sex 2 days or 5 hours before you get your period in hopes you'll get pregnant. It just won't work, because by that time the egg has already broken down and is getting ready to be expelled from your body. There is a small window each month that a woman has to get pregnant. To be fruitful and multiply, you must have sexual intercourse during the period spanning one to two days before ovulation to about 24 hours afterward. The reason: Sperm cells can live for two or three days, but an egg survives no more than 24 hours after ovulation. Unless, of course, fertilization occurs.
If you have sex near the time of ovulation it stands to reason you'll increase your chances of getting pregnant. And you'll be happy to know that the odds are with you: In normally fertile couples there is a 25 percent chance of getting pregnant each cycle, meaning around 75 to 85 percent of women who have sex without using birth control will get pregnant within one year. You can try to up your likelihood of getting pregnant by learning to pinpoint exactly when you ovulate by familiarizing yourself with the cyclic hormonal and physical changes that take place in your body each month. You can also use this knowledge to attempt birth control by avoiding intercourse near the time of ovulation.

If you're having sex immediately prior to your period in the hopes of getting pregnant, you've got it all wrong. You ovulate 12-16 days before your period comes and you are fertile in the days leading up to and including ovulation. The egg has a very short life span after ovulation so by the time your period is approaching, it's long dead.
Get a copy of "Taking Charge of Your Fertility" by Toni Weschler to learn how to chart your cycles and interpret your body's fertility signs. Two months is not long to have been trying, but if you keep having sex 5 hours before your period, it's just not ever going to work.
