I am 32 years old with IDDM. I gave birth to my daughter in 2003 via emergency c-section due to having pre-eclampsia. Since having her I have been trying to get pregnant but as of yet no luck. I havent had a period since having my daughter and am woriied that something is wrong as before my period where regular. My hormone levels are normal yet I still havent conceived it has now been close to 8 years since I have had a proper period. Is there any chance of me being able to get pregnant before I get too much older??

A bigger question you should be asking is whether you are ovulating. Without ovulation, pregnancy is not possible (unless, of course, you undergo invitro fertilization).

And of course, you need a male partner who is also fertile.
