Oop, that completely slipped my mind. Thanks for the reminder!

DNA Transformation:

"If you turn into a clone of the original, copulating would be 
possible, and possibly getting pregnant would be, too. However, you 
would misscarriage within the hour, since the person you're 
polyjuicing into isn't pregnant herself, so you'd change into the non-
pregnant version of her. A woman turning into a man could help 
another woman to become pregnant, too."

Woah, the many possibilities and consequences of Polyjuice Potion 
come to light! Hehehehe. Well, I think jkusalavagemd mentioned taking 
polyjuice potion for an extended period of time, a la Barty Crouch 
Jr, in order to hypothetically carry a baby to term. That might 
result, in some strange, off the wall way, in the first man giving 
birth.

So, let's say DNA transformation takes place when Polyjuice is 
ingested. And a man took Polyjuice to assume the form of a female. 
And as a female, he/she copulates with a male. Continuing to take the 
Polyjuice, he/she becomes pregnant. If he were to stop taking the 
Polyjuice, would he be able to transform back, despite the pregnancy? 
Would it depend on how far along he/she was? Perhaps a miscarriage 
wouldn't necessarily occur, but the fetus would simply cease to 
exist. Or only part of the fetus would cease to exist, since the egg 
part didn't originally exist, thus causing the entire fetus to be 
miscarried? How, then, would it be expelled? Or would the fetus, 
being of an entirely different set of DNA, screw up the entire 
process, causing the Polyjuiced person to be stuck in some sort of 
limbo?

I'll take your word for it.

I thought about that. That would be either really embarrassing, 
mortifying, or both. I'm thinking now of Austin Powers II, when 
Austin walks in on a clone of himself getting it on with Heather 
Graham's character. Imagine walking in on your lover having sex with 
you, only it's not you! Would that be considered cheating? If intent 
plays into it, then no. But on a purely physical level, it would 
probably depend upon what sort of transformation is it: illusory or 
DNA.

Um, sure, they would be tempted.
