Thrush medicine and pregnancy
I am trying to get pregnant and am ovulating at the moment. Should I wait this month and avoid sex over the next two days or do you think it would be okay to still to try?
Also I may well have conceived on Sunday night - what would happen to the foetus after taking this medicine?

For more on marking an answer as the "Best Answer", please visit our FAQ.The BNF says that in rare cases long-term, high doses of Fluconazole can cause birth defects in a child. I don't think you should worry since you only require a single dose which is highly unlikely to do any damage. It also extremely unlikely to cause any harm in the first few days of pregnancy either. Perhaps you should wait for this month and then start again next time though, if only for your own peace of mind.
Good luck, I hope you are successful and have a good pregnancy and a healthy baby!
