Not currently but did conceive at 37 with first child. Took about 12 months but saw GP after 6 to be told that they wouldn't refer me on until 24 months had passed.

We had our first when I was 38. Took 5 months to conceive. We were pretty scientific about it - tracking ovulation, DTD every other day etc, but no luck. In that fifth month we changed two things - we used a pregnancy lube, and switched from me coming before penetration to afterwards. No idea if it was either or both or neither of these things that did the trick, but something did! Good luck!
