Many couples trying to have a second child have difficulty, while the first pregnancy has come easily and quickly. If you are trying one year with mom's age up to 35 years or 6 months with mom's age over 35 and not pregnant yet, then maybe you should get a fertility expert’s advice.  It seems paradoxical, but it happens quite often.

Secondary infertility is experienced by 1 in 8 couples trying to have a baby. If left undiagnosed and untreated, it can result in anxiety, stress, and emotional overload.

The causes of secondary infertility, apart from age, are mainly the following:

-PCOS

- Low ovarian reserve (the older a woman gets the ovarian reserve decreases)

-A medical condition or long-term medication treatment

-Male infertility

It is important to investigate a woman’s​​ hormone levels, her fertility (ovarian reserve, etc.), the function of the fallopian tubes, the uterus and her cycle. Do not forget, of course, that lifestyle can contribute or complicate our effort. From a balanced diet to adequate sleep, we can make some small changes that will give us better health.
