The answer

Conception occurs when a sperm fertilizes a woman's egg. The egg usually matures in the middle of the menstrual cycle, meaning during the ten middle days. The probability of pregnancy increases the closer intercourse is to the middle of the cycle.

Those who experience delays in conceiving can consult a specialized doctor, both the husband and wife, to determine the cause and receive treatment. This should be accompanied by turning to Allah the Almighty and supplicating, for everything is in His hands, glory be to Him, as He says: "To Allah belongs the dominion of the heavens and the earth; He creates what He wills. He gives to whom He wills female [children], and He gives to whom He wills males. Or He combines them [as] males and females, and He renders whom He wills infertile. Indeed, He is Knowing and Competent." [Ash-Shura: 50].

One must be content with Allah's decree and destiny. Whoever patiently endures and seeks reward for what they have missed, Allah will compensate them with something better in this world or the hereafter.
