Trying to Get Pregnant

Trying to Conceive Questions

I’m 33, partner is 28. I was on Depo for about 3 years. My last shot was March 23. I got my first period July 2nd. Bright red blood, all was normal.
I started my period most recently yesterday August 1st. Seems to be much more brown this time. It was a heavy flow in July. We started having unprotected sex around July 7th when my 1st period ended. 
I guess to be honest I am super sad that I’m not pregnant. I don’t seem to be ovulating whatsoever. I started using the ovulation predictor strips in July. My blood work is all normal and healthy. I am a healthy weight, I’m active, I take multivitamins. My age does concern me to be honest.. any tips or advice?

    But, it can take a regular couple 6-12 months of trying to conceive, even if they have no problems or complications.  It's guessed you have around a 20% chance of conceiving, even with PERFECT timing.  So, the fact that you thought this was going to immediately happen the first month trying is a bit astounding!!!
