Having a forced break from TTC

I’ve been TTC for 3 years with 4 miscarriages. I’m almost 35 & last loss was last autumn. But I’ve got to take a forced 3 month break as next month I travel for work to a country that has a Zika virus risk.
I feel so conflicted - on one hand I am looking forward to the trip. But I am also stressed that I’m going to miss around 2 cycles that I could have been trying.
Has anyone had to take a break and coped ok with it? I just feel stressed all the time so maybe this will help, but it feels like wasted time.

Struggling to get pregnant again after losses

I’ve been TTC for almost 3 years and had 4 miscarriages. It usually takes me 2-3 cycles to get pregnant again. But due to pcos and some complications with the miscarriages, time just drags on and here I am 3 years later.

I’ve now just had an unsuccessful fourth cycle.

I know that 4 cycles isn’t that long, but after 3 years and it not taking that many cycles previously I am starting to get worried.

I’m UK based, and wondering at what point I start getting fertility tests done (had some tests for the miscarriages) My plan would be to go private as I don’t think I can deal with the nhs waits.

Also just needed to vent as I am so so tired of this being my life.
