you were probably just not ovulating at the time, you must ovulate to conceive a baby. Some ADULT women have a hard time getting pregnant sometimes it takes up to 2 years or longer even. But the main thing is why the hell are you trying to get pregnant!?!? I got pregnant at 16 and I love my daughter but I would absolutely never suggest anyone get pregnant this young, you have to realize this baby will a human being that you are totally and financially responsible for, it takes so much work and you give up everything for a child, it doesnt sound like you are in a good situation right now, not living at home anymore are you in school even??(very important to have an education trust me) Don't you want better for your children??

Perhaps your cycles weren't regular yet. You maybe weren't ovulating every month. I highly doubt a 14 or 15 year old really understood how reproduction occurs (like the science part). Its all about timing my dear. Besides, trying for 5 months is not very long at all. A lot of couples don't suceed right away. Up to 18 months is considered normal. Best of luck to you.

When you are 14-15 you are not as fertile as you are at about 20 years of age, so that is why. Question to you what they hell do you want to get pregnant at such a young age? are you from some poor African country where the average life expectancy is 40? most women these days want to start families in their 30s and 40s when they have lived a little and established in a job, any case it is dangerous to have a child so young as you have not probably stopped growing yourself and the child can be born with defects.

Honestly it was probably just not your time.I was the same way i has been sexually active when i was 16-19 and wondered why i wasn't getting pregnant and then when i was not planning for it or expecting it i got pregnant at 19.So it usually does happen when you least expect it but if you haven't had any history of reasons for why you might not be able to get pregnant then that's one thing but other then that don't believe you can't because you most likely can it usually just takes alot of sex and determination.

There are lots of factors that go into getting pregnant, it could be any number of reasons. The most important thing to worry about now is your health, and if you are pregnant, your baby's health. See a doctor right away, even if you're not pregnant, a checkup for yourself can put your mind at ease.

its the right timing. The sperm has to meet up with the egg within 24 hours. But you shouldnt try to get pregnant your still a minor

Gods in control of life and death. Maybe he thought you weren't ready. But from my own experiance I would make sure your ready to commit yourself to seeing that person for the rest of your life. Being a single mom is not easy.
