Chance to get pregnant or health check

Tomorrow I'm going to have home insemination (only that one attempt possible this cycle). I'm in my early 40s so every cycle counts. But Tuesday I have an exploratory medical procedure that requires taking medication that could interfere with a growing embryo. There's not much research on the possible side effects. The procedure could reveal a health issue but may also reveal there's an all clear. What should I do?

How long have you been trying? If it’s quite a while, I would do health check so you can get some answers either way. If it’s not long then can you reschedule?

This will be my second cycle so I haven't been trying long

If you reschedule, you might have this same issue every month (if you don’t conceive) unless they can time it carefully for after your period and before ovulation. I’d probably do the check now because fast forward 6 months, if you’re not pregnant and then find out there was an issue it will feel like wasted time. Difficult to know what is the “right” thing as you need a crystal ball. Good luck!
