I think you are on the right track but as hard as it is, give it more time.
<br />
<br />So by charting you are taking your basal temp every morning right? Keep charting. It will only help. As for vitex and B6, yes I took those. Mostly to help lengthen my luteal phase as well as help me ovulate earlier in my cycle. I tend to ovulate around day 21/22 and have a shorter luteal phase. While on vitex I ovulated on day 15 2 cycles in a row (got pregnant on the 2nd one). I also used preseed.
<br />
<br />Keep trying!

please don't rely on an ovulation calendar. My luteal phase (the phase between ovulation and getting your period) averages only about 11-12 days. The "average" is 14 but it can even be a day or so longer. Very few women meet the "average". If I relied on the ovulation calendar, it would have me ovulating earlier in my cycle than I do and I would have missed it every time. The best indicator of when you ovulate is taking your basal body temp - it will also give you a measure of your reproductive health as you chart each successive cycle. I HIGHLY suggest you get a copy of "Taking Charge of your Fertility". You will learn so much about your body.

Go to fertilityfriend.com this website is extremely helpful. Once you register, they have online emails/ teaching of how to chart your basal body temperature. They also cover reading physical signs of potential ovulation, etc. It offers charting online under your name which will help ID when you are near ovulation. It is a free service, but also has the option to pay a yearly membership (approximately $35 USD) in order to have access to their forums and fertility experts which can be extremely helpful.

G'luck. It is frustrating if you hope to have a pregnancy within the first few months of trying. It can be a long road. It took my husband and I just over 2 years to become pregnant, and that was w/ assistance using IUI's.

Take care -
