The only trying that needs to be done is to quit using contracption and continue doing what comes naturally. After 6 months of unprotected intercourse about 50% of NORMAL couples will have achieved a pregnancy (gotten pregNANT). after 12 months 85 % will have done so, and after 24 months 95% will have succeeded. After that point, evaluation to find out why it hasn't happened is indicated.
