I waited for the opportunity when the prince had to go work out of the palace before I gave one of the doctors a call to discuss my condition. After briefly explaining to the doctor about my irregular cycles and also expressing my worries about my difficulties in conceiving, the doctor let out a sigh that was loud enough for me to hear from my end of the line.
“You might think that it is concerning, but it is more common than you think. Irregular cycles can be a result of various things. One of the most common causes is stress and lack of rest. If the mind and body are not healthy, it can result in irregular cycles. Based on what you've told me before, you've had many regular cycles for many years so it might be hard to predict the date for ovulation. That might be one of the reasons behind why it is difficult for you to conceive,” the doctor explained calmly.
“Is there something that I can do? Something that will help?” I ask as I started feeling extremely desperate.
