Is Pregnancy Possible After Treating Bacterial Vaginosis?

Hello doctor! I m 31 y/o and had blighted ovum 9 months ago. Recently, my ob gyne prescribed Clotrimazole vaginal tablet 100 mg for 6 nights since my pap smear showed suggestive of bacterial vaginosis but failed to ask if i can conceive right after finishing the treatment. Ovulation is close. Is pregnancy possible after treatment with vaginal suppository? Is there any effect when trying to get pregnant? Thank you.

yes, you can conceive after completing the treatment of vaginal. vaginal suppositories are acting locally and nothing to do with systemic effect. so your ovulation is not affected, your chances to become pregnant is same as others.
