hi all. I have this 2 girl friends at work that asked me if I take the pill, and I do. well they said to me that they're not taking any pill or use any protection (one of them is married for 7 years and the other about to get married) for all this time they've been having sex... so how come they don't fall pregnant? they can't have babies? they told me it might be a little harder... im just shocked that for so many years without using any protection they haven't fall pregnant... they seem confident that they're going to fall pregnant it will just take time but im starting to think very different that they might not be able to ever have babies but I didn't say that because its so terrible.

It does sound like they may have some fertility issues. It depends what those are as to whether they are likely to fall pregnant or not. My husband and I have been having unprotected sex for 23 years and I've never fallen pregnant by mistake. We needed medical help with both ours. At the time it was very distressing but actually it was a relatively simple problem to resolve and now I see it as a blessing never having had to even consider birth control. However your friends will make their own choices about when and if they should seek medical help.

I think you are asking "if my friends are not getting preg. can I do the same"? My answer to that is NO. You will be taking a chance.
They both have some medical reasons. They will see a doctor and do somehing about it when they *really* want the baby. Having baby is a very personal affair. Do not put your nose into something that does not belong there. Just be quiet.
As for yourself, continue to take the pills and still force your man to wear condoms until you both are ready. Man must wear condom especially if you are not married because he could be sleeping around. After marriage you both test yourself and then stop all birthcontrols when you are ready to bring a little one into this world. This is the most intelligent way of doing things.

They may use the withdrawl method or condoms. You never know. I have a 5 year old son and i have not been on birth control since 2 years before i had him until now so you could say i haven't been on birth control in 7 years and i only have one kid. I do not use any kind of protection (We sometimes use the pull & pray method)
I have not became pregnant -not because i can't but because i haven't wanted too.
Some may have condtions in which it may be harder for them to become pregnant or they don't have sex while they are fertile. Who knows?

the problem is that we've been all instructed for years how common it truly is to get pregnant and then discover out in the different case after we opt for it truly is time. Getting pregnant is a tremendous type of possibility and timing and healthful structures. the human beings who were given pregnant so without delay only got here about to have all of them operating for them. it would want to take a classic healthful couple a three hundred and sixty 5 days to a three hundred and sixty 5 days and a nil.5 on frequent to get pregnant. I advise interpreting up on your fertility cycle and get to appeal to close your ovulation symptoms. The extra you recognize, the added likely you'd have the ability to extend your opportunities each month. sturdy success

They should see the doctor(both your friend(s) and her partner(s)) to find out about fertility testing. After 7 years, it's likely that either they VERY rarely have sex, and just haven't gotten pregnant yet, or they need to make some changes and try some new things.

They either could be sterile or just have a really low fertility level? Ask how many siblings and cousins they have. I'm sure if they both really want kids that they'll see a doctor about it on their own. But remind them about STIs, having sex without protection is really dangerous.

could be for many reasons, there infertile or the husbands little swimmers just arn't getting there. your only most fertile before your period. there is a fertility monitor they can buy from Walgreen's it will smile at them when they are ovulating so they know when its the best time to have sex. no guantrees of a baby but it helps cut down on the guessing time.

They probably use natural methods of preventing pregnancy or maybe they do not have sex very often. Its also possible that they practice other forms of intercourse than "regular" vaginal intercourse. I would not say anything to them until they perhaps mention to you that they are not getting pregnant and do not know why. Until then, its not really any of your business.

they should go and see the doctor to find out whats going on. it may be as simple as they aren't having sex at the right time. but who knows thats what doctors are for.

They may use natural methods of avoiding pregnancy. There are ways to prevent pregnancy without medication or barrier devices.
