Dr. Hunter Handsfield answered

Specializes in Infectious Disease

There are conflicting beliefs about alcohol and its potential effects on conception and pregnancy. Probably it is a minor issue either way: i.e. neither very good nor bad to have modest alcohol intake when conception might be likely. Certainly there is no evidence that alcohol improves the chances of conception.
