Jane, The definition of infertility is one year of unprotected intercourse without conception. Keep in mind that only 20% of couples who are sexually active on the day of ovulation will conceive each cycle. The obvious exceptions to this rule is if you are with someone you aren't supposed to be with or if you are in the back seat of a car. I would recommend that you relax and continue for a total of one year. If no pregnancy at that point, then consult your physician. I would suggest beginning basal body temp charting. This will put you ahead of the game if you have to see your physician-bring copies to the appointment... Lynn
