Is it okay to take antibiotics while trying to conceive?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Depends.: Some antibiotics (e.g. Doxycycline, levofloxacin) are potentially teratogenic so you should avoid them while trying to conceive - however most antibiotics are safe under your doctor's care. Take Folic Acid 1 mg daily and best of luck!
