All,

So a friend of mine is planning a family and haven’t gotten pregnant yet. Her gynac said they it may happen right away or may take even a year to conceive. Well, i don’t really understand this.

If a fertile man and woman are having frequent sex, what really leads to not getting pregnant?

I once saw a statistic that said there is a 1/4 chance of conception if two fertile people have unprotected sex during the window of fertility for the female. So given that the window is short, and in perfect conditions there is only a 25% chance you can see how it would take a few months to conceive.
