Yes: Once you've been cleared by your doctor to start trying for your next pregnancy, you should be fine. Methotrexate is harmful in pregnancy but quickly clears from your body. After one full menstrual cycle, the effects of Methotrexate should be gone. Of course, many other things can affect fertility, including the reason you may have needed Methotrexate in the first place.

Try urinating after sex to flush out bacteria. And if your infections are really frequent, talk to your doctor about taking antibiotics after sex or even more frequently.

No magic amount: There's no agreement on an ideal quantity. In general, increasing fluid intake is a good idea. Try to stick to unsweetened juices to minimize unwanted calories.
