This is my first time posting on this topic, not sure if this is the right place to be posting or what I hope to get from this.
Bit of background to my situation ; I'm 43 and met my partner when I was 38 (he's 38 now), never really been in a long term relationship prior to him and we are getting married next month. We were always on the fence about having kids but ultimately agreed to 'try' to see what happened but that if it didn't happen we wouldn't go to any extraordinary measures and move on. We starting TTC about 2 years ago and it hasn't happened yet. I've been to my GP who has advised I'm still ovulating and have been tracking my periods but I feel I have limited knowledge about what I'm doing other than to have sex when I'm ovulating etc, not even looked at temp or anything.
I'm really not sure where to go from here. I am very aware that my age is against me and always thought deep down that it wouldn't happen because of my age but I know I would love to have a child. My partner would be happy either way but I don't know if it's fair to him to put him through any tests etc after what we spoke about, I don't even know if there is an issue (although I'm guessing there is) and I'm not sure I'd want to find out who the issue is with.
I'm just wondering if I visit the GP (I've now moved across country and haven't yet been to this one) to see if there is anything else I can do or if it's even worth it? My last GP just basically said there's nothing wrong with me and to keep trying, this was a year in and I knew I was moving so I left it. Are there any tests that can be done on just me, is there something more I can do or would it automatically involve tests etc on my fiance as a rule.
We've had an incredibly stressful couple of years, moved to a different part of the country, very stressful house purchases and new jobs plus a wedding to plan etc. We are finally settled and I know I need to have a conversation with him but is it even worth it? Do I just accept it won't happen and move on? Would love some positive stories from others or some advice.
