Man on a course

Hi,
My boyfriend started taking a course of medication yesterday.
The course is for an epididymitis.
The course lasts 14 days.

Now my question: my ovulation is coming up soon (+/- 3-4 days).
Can we still have unprotected sex?
Could it cause any harm?
Is the sperm okay? Will there be no issues for the future child if conception happens?
Does anyone have tips on this?

    I would indeed ask your GP about this first..

    Hi,
    Thanks for your replies.
    We called the doctor and read the leaflet. (Stupid that we didn't think to read the leaflet about this).

    But the doctor says we can still have sex despite the treatment.
    However, the sperm count might be lower and slower.
    So the chance of getting pregnant is smaller.
    But we're still trying.
    Also, it shouldn't harm a baby if conception were to happen.

    Well, that's good news, Wendy.. Less chance, but at least more than zero chance this round..
