I've been using delay spray for the past 7-8 years to help with PE, but I haven't really paid attention to the instructions all that time. Now my partner and I are trying for a baby and there's a chance we might have conceived, but nothing is confirmed yet. I'm just worried if the delay spray could have any effects on conceiving or on the embryo or fetus that's developing. Could it be a potential issue?

Delay sprays typically contain local anesthetics like lidocaine or benzocaine, which are generally considered safe for external use in small amounts. However, prolonged or excessive use could potentially affect sperm motility. Its advisable to consult with a healthcare provider for personalized advice, especially when trying to conceive.

I've just had plastic surgery and am currently taking cefadroxil 500mg twice a day for the next six days as part of my post-op meds. However, I was also on azithromycin 500mg for urethritis and have only taken the first dose. I'm supposed to take the second and third doses. Is it okay to take the cefadroxil while continuing with the azithromycin for urethritis?
