Is it ok still get pregnant if i've been exposed x-ray radiation?

X-rays: Most people in this country have had x-rays at some point. X-ray protocols help to protect ovaries & testicles. Having x-rays should not prevent pregnancy.

Yes: Assuming you are otherwise healthy. Radiation doesn't remain in your body.
