Hello and welcome,
I understand the query well.
You have already had a myomectomy, husband had a varicocele and your age is 40 years. The chances of spontaneous conception after 40 years is low. Assistance is needed in most cases as ovulation may not occur regularly and also quality of ova and sperms may not be very good.
I will not say that there are no chances of conception as spontaneous pregnancies do occur at this age but they are rare.
So you may try for a few cycles using ovulation tracking and if there is no result then take help of assisted reproduction.
Best of luck.
Hope this satisfies your query.
Thanks for using HCM.
Feel free to ask any more questions that you may have.
