Absolutely! Ask for a referral to a fertility expert. If your OB won't refer you to anyone, ask your insurance company to provide you with a list of fertility experts in your area that are covered under your plan. Good luck honey.

check this out it might have some ideas for you:

There's tonnes of tips and ideas on this site, just take a few moments to surf it, there very well may be something there to help you. If you're doctor hasn't been able to identify a medical condition that's preventing you from becoming pregnant just keep trying. We fail only when we fail to try.
Don't feel alone!! You may want to try just really focusing on preparing your body for pregnancy, will it to happen - I know it's not exactly a professional opinion but I believe that a lot of this kind of thing is frame of mind. Rather than thinking to yourself - I'll never conceive because no one can help me, tell yourself that you will, really really feel it, as though you already are pregnant. This mindset works for most things for me, its funny how when you ask the universe for something it conspires to make it happen, it takes time and patience, just believe that you can become pregnant and use whatever resources you have available to you (ie. the above site I suggested). Positive frame of mind is key so don't give up, you will be rewarded for being hopeful, don't let yourself be disappointed, just keep trying. I wish you the best of luck and please don't lose hope. I have a really strong feeling about it.

do not stress, there are ways tips to help improve conception. First, begin taking folic acid at least one month before you start trying to conceive and during your first trimester. By taking 400 micrograms of folic acid a day can cut down your chances of having a baby with neural tube defects such as spina bifida by up to 70 percent. It may be difficult to get all of the needed nutrients you need to help produce a healthy baby, so taking folic acid may help you greatly. You can by the supplement and many drug stores.

Another way to help improve conception is by giving up taking drugs, alcohol, and smoking. Smoking and taking drugs can lead to miscarriages, premature birth, and low birthweight babies. Smoking can affect your fertility rate also and lower your husbands sperm count. Second hand smoke can also lower your chances of getting pregnant. Over indulgence in caffeine can also be a big no no. Too much caffeine while pregnant can reduce your ability to absorb iron, and increase your risk for stillbirth. When you are ready to conceive a baby, start weaning yourself off of coffee, tea, and sodas.

Maintaining a healthy weight while pregnant is essential and can also increase your chances of conceiving. Women whose Body Mass Index is below 20 or above 30 have a harder time getting pregnant. So a Body Mass Index in between these numbers can make it easier to conceive. You can start by eating healthy. Get rid off all the unnecessary junk food in your refrigerator and replace it with health foods. Your body is going to need nutrients and nutrients help a healthy pregnancy. Create and most importantly, follow an exercise program. Start and stick to a fitness plan. Healthy exercise programs include 20 to 60 minutes of aerobic activity. This can be walking, weight training, cycling, and even muscle training. Two to three days a week. Keep in mind too that exercising while pregnant is healthy and recommended.

Knowing when you ovulate can help increase your chances of getting pregnant. Some women simply choose to stop using birth control when they are ready to get pregnant, and when it happens it happens. Others like to pinpoint their ovulation day. Start charting your basal body temperature and the changes in your cervical mucus. Tracking these symptoms over several months can help you to determine when you ovulate each month. Ovulation predictor kits can also help you figure out when you’re ovulating. It detects hormones in your urine that signal that ovulation is about to occur. By taking certain steps and precautions your chances of conceiving a healthy baby is very likely.
