I think it depends on the reason why the person is taking Metronidazole? If it is bacterial vaginitis or some other sort of infection that might interfere with intercourse, then in my opinion, it would be in both partner's best interest to wait till Metronidazole treatment is fully finished and maybe even take caution a few days afterwards to allow their body to heal from the infection.

I would personally feel comfortable after the 10th day, knowing that my partner has pretty much fully recovered from whatever infection it was; but that's just me and I'm sure others wouldn't want to wait an extra 3 days Lol! It may also be best for this person to just go off of how they feel and let you know if they are comfortable with having intercourse directly after treatment.

I hope this advice helps!
