could my girlfriend be infertile. we have been trying for 8 months. she believes shes incapable of conceiving. no one in her family is infertile. on average we have vaginal sexual intercourse about 3-5 times a week. . the year prior we dated she would use drugs such as marijuana r2s (pills) cocaine and heroine (never injected). i don't know if she was a heavy or light user. she drinks/smokes at our family/friends gatherings about 5-8 beers and cigarettes. i was thinking of using the placebo method. she also has vaginitis.
hi prolonged drug use can affect egg production and maturation affecting fertility levels. the chances of successful pregnancy depend on many factors (ovarian uterine hormonal stress etc). you should consider getting a complete infertility work-up done for partner to see if there are any underlying causes for the infertility/inability to conceive. do hope this helps both of you. good luck
