When should a doctor be consulted?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

In young couples it is recommended that they undergo certain blood tests if they do not become pregnant after 1 year of unprotected intercourse. Doctors might advise tests sooner if the woman does not have regular periods or is over the age of 35.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
