how difficult is it to become pregnant?
About 1 in 6 couples seek specialist help because of difficulty in conceiving and 1 in 7 couples take more than a year to cget pregnant, whilst 1 in 20 take over two years.
The act of procreation is one of the most basic functions we have, and yet for those who want help in conceiving there are now hundreds of self-help books, complimentary health treatments, magazines and web sites, happy to regale us with everything from medical facts to old wives' tales.
Does all this information empower us or can it just give us more to worry about? Comedienne Meryl O'Rourke has been finding out the hard way.
