Will The Administration Of Cephalexin Tablet Cause Any Problem In Conception?

Hi,
I am about to ovulate and trying to get pregnant. I have a UTI and the doctor prescribed cefalexin monohydrate 500mg. I need to take 3 tablets a day, the total dosage is 20 tablets which means I will have to take this for a week. Is this ok and will it impact conception?
Thanks.
