Detailed Answer:
Hello,

Welcome to Healthcare Magic.

I read carefully your query.

The drugs you are taking : Ciprofloxacine (Ciprotab) ,Doxycycline ,Metronidazole don't have any interaction between them so they can be taken together.
These drugs are antibiotics ,used to treat different types of infections.

Usually Ciprofloxacin is taken 2 hours after a meal ,at the same time after a meal.
Doxycyxline and Metronidazole ca be taken 1 hour before meals or 2 hours after a meal.

Cervicitis is a inflammation of cervix uteri and mostly is caused from a bacterial infection.
The treatment depends on the cause of the infection.The most common causes include :
-Chlamydia, Gonorrhea, Herpes ,Trochomoniasis ,Human papilloma virus, bacterial vaginosis, allergic reaction.
The examination of the cervical secretions under microscope with determine the cause of the infection.
If the cause of cervicitis is a sexually transmitted infection like Gonorrhea and Chlamydia the treatment will be : Doxycycline 100 mg twice a day for 7 days and Cyprofloxacine 500 mg .
If the cause is Trichomoniasis the treatment is : Metronidazole 500 mg twice a day for 7 days.

Usually when women presents with symptoms of cervicitis ,she is treated empirically for chlamydia and gonorrhea with Doxycycline 100 mg twice a day for 7 days and Cefrtiaxone 250 mg .

Hope it helps.

Detailed Answer:
Hello,

I apologize for the delay in answering your query.

These drugs are prescribed to treat a bacterial infection of cervix uteri.This can prevent any problem with fertility that would result from letting the infection untreated.
The drugs don't affect fertility.The treatment of infection itself will increase the probability to be fertile.

Gonadotropins are hormones produced by pituitary gland that regulates reproductive function.These hormones are follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) and luteinizing hormone (LH).
These hormones can be taken as a fertility treatment that is used to stimulate ovulation.
You should discuss it with a fertility specialist before taking it.He will instruct you which medication to use and when,in order to increase chances of pregnancy.

Let me know if you have any other question.
Take care,

Dr.Rovena
