Hi Rebecca
Welcome to HealthcareMagic
Condition of frequent period is known as polymenorrhea and it could be due to hormonal imbalance. You and your partner need to be evaluated thoroughly for the cause of infertility. You should consult a gynecologist and need to undergo physical examination,hormonal investigations and test for patency of fallopian tube. Take care.
