A member asked:

Had sex the last day of taking metronidazole how soon can i become pregnant?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Wait 1 cycle: Most women will ovulate 14 days before the onset of their next period. So if a woman has a regular 28 day cycle, she is most fertile on day 14. If you are taking any prescription medication, it is best to wait 1 cycle before trying to get pregnant.
