Herpes has no impact on your fertility. Have you seen a fertility specialist?? You might also try the infertility board for suggestions...

First how long have you actually been trying? The reason I ask is sometimes people start worrying and stressing at the 6 month mark and stress can cause more issues.
Also get the book Taking Charge of Your Fertility. Great book to have. Start charting your cycles to help you pinpoint your fertile time. If you have been ttc for over a year go see your dr and explain to him/her that you have been ttc and nothing has happened.

Thanks for the replys!
Well yeah its been over a year..
I havent gone to see a specialist.
but i never have any problems
with my period or anything..
well maybe stress is the problem
because I do stress alot.
Or idk if its because of my husband.
Ill probably see a specialist soon
if nothing happens..
ugh i just dont know.

Just because you dont have a problem with your period doesnt mean there isnt an problem. There is a wide range of issues with either you,him or even both. It could be as simple bad timing to as complex as your tubes are blocked. Dont just focus on yourself because it takes two to make a baby.
Like I said get that book and read over it as well. It can help you and will give you a list of tests you can request for both of you.
