Hi ! Good morning. I am Dr Shareef answering your query.

No -- deworming medicines would not create any risk of not being able to conceive for you. Also, this medicine is used once only when worms are detected in the stool. Also there are studies, where one of the deworming agents like mebendazole is included in the medications during ante natal care of pregbnant ladies. About your kidney problem in the scan, you might have to consult a urologist or nephrologist.

I hope this information would help you in discussing with your family physician/treating doctor in planning your treatment. Thanks for using the health care magic forum for your query on health. Wishing you an early recovery. Dr Shareef.
