Well I have always had problems with my period.I am 33 and pregnant with my second baby.I did have my first one till I was 30.My husband and I tryed everything out there.I think when the time is right it will happen.I acually got pregnant both times 14 days after my period.So I would count the days after a normal period and make sure you lay in bed for a few minutes afterwards.Good luck I will pray fro you.

Since you didn't really say what kind's of problems you are having I would suggest seeing your OB/Gyn for a pre-pregnancy exam.A lot of things can cause problems the most common are hormonal or ovulatory and your man will probably have to have a semen analysis done.Your age's also determine how long you should wait before seeing a specialist.6 months for couples over 35 and 12 months 35 and under.As far as TTC...taking your BBT

I highly recommend charting your fertility signs. Many, if not most women do NOT have textbook 28 day cycles w/ ovulation around Day 14. Your cycle may be very different, but normal for you. It may only be a matter of timing intercourse to make conception more likely. If there are any issues which can delay conception or make it difficult to carry a pregnancy, charting can show you those. Many issues can be solved on your own w/o invasive testing and/or risky fertility drugs (even a single round of clomid carries risks).
Some good sources: Fertilityfriend.com (free software as well as a pay-for version and on-line charting turorial); ovusoft.com (discussion boards for many fertility related issues, much info on fertility after the pill, and a very good software for purchase). The books Taking Charge of Your Fertility (associated w/ the the ovusoft website and software), The Art of Natural Family Planning, and Garden of Fertility

About the "do it as much as possible" thing.. Don't. Every other day should be sufficient enough.. and also.. make sure he is taking a role in all of this.. it may sound cliche, but have him wear loose fitting clothing, and don't let his boys get too hot, or else sperm cannot survive.. Start taking vitamins, such as calcium, folic acid and iron. Talk to your doctor and possibly try charting, if your periods aren't too irregular. Just get in touch with your body!! also.. Relax and good luck!!

You should consult your OBGYN she/he should be more than happy to help you determine what is the best plan of action. Since they'll know your medical history, etc. it will be much easier for them to guide you and give you tips specific to your situation. Having irregular periods and other problems may or may not effect your chances of conceiving, it depends on how often you ovulate. If you can determine when you do this then it may not be a problem at all.

All I have to say is do it as often and as much as possible! Also, many people have irregular menstrual periods. As long as there are no other kinds of complications internally you should be good to go.
