Can Flagyl help me get Pregnant

Flagyl is an oral prescription medication that is also known as metronidazole. It is an antibiotic medication that is used to treat infections and fight bacteria in the body. It is used to treat bacterial infections of the vagina, joints, skin, and respiratory tract.



This medication is not used to treat vaginal yeast infections. Flagyl usually has no reported affect on fertility, although it is an antibiotic so that means that it can decrease the effectiveness of birth control pills which can make it more likely to get pregnant.


There have not been very many human studies of Flagyl in women, although several animal studies have been done. The animal studies failed to show evidence of fetal harm. It has been proven, however, that Flagyl does cross the placental barrier.



Some studies did show that Flagyl was associated with an increased risk of cleft lip or cleft palate. However, those studies have not been confirmed. Many doctors use Flagyl to treat STD’s during any stage of pregnancy, and consider it to be a safe drug.


It is classified as a pregnancy category B drug which means that use is not recommended during the first trimester, but that is all that the FDA says about this drug during pregnancy. If you are using Flagyl or thinking about using it, make sure to talk with your doctor to make sure that there are no concerns that you need to be aware of.

  1. Myself and my husband had been trying to get pregnant for 18 months before I was referred to Native Iyabasira fertility solution. We had no definite diagnosis of what was wrong and had become very frustrated. In November 2015 I was given a thorough reproductive health work up, I found out I had low progesterone, thyroid issues and a stomach issue which was affecting my ability to get pregant. This was a very thorough process involving dietary, hormonal and physical investigations and started the recommended treatments in Feb 16 2016. I was pregnant by april 16. I had a baby boy in march 2017. I was carefully monitored and mother Iyabasira was always available for me. I can recommend native iyabasira more highly so much so we are hoping to start trying for a second baby under her guidance.
