What is the best treatment to get pregnant?
Patient: I am Divya (25 yrs old). My husband is 28 yrs old. We got married 2 years back. We started trying for a kid a year back but i did not get pregnant. So we took all tests for both me and my husband and everything was normal except I had slightly elevated prolactin (52 ng/ml). I took medicines and everything is normal now (21 ng/ml). I got pregnant 5 months back but we had to abort it as it was not fully formed. Only sac was there. We started trying again 2 months back, but still I am not pregnant. How many more months should we try? I am little worried as it is getting delayed. I want to have a baby soon. Thanks for you answer in advance. Doctor: Hi,Since you did get pregnant 5 months ago within a year of trying to get pregnant, it means that both you and your husband are fine, especially since you have also done the tests as well.It was unfortunate that you lost the pregnancy, but this occurs in 1/6 pregnancies. So, it should not concern you much, as it has happened only once.Since you have been trying again for only two months now, I would advise you to continue trying for another 8-10 months months.85% of couples conceive within a year of trying. Only the remaining 15% need help. And since you have got pregnant before there is a very high chance that you will get pregnant soon.Please do consider folic acid while trying to conceive, this is for normal development of the baby.Hope this helps.Regards.
