Does taking medication for TB cause difficulty in conception?
Patient: I'm trying for a child and after the hysteroscopy and endometrial biopsy the result of TB PCR test was non Tb Micobactiria -detected and TB Micobactirial Infection as negative . Doctor adviced me to take medicine as if I have TB .Will there be a chance for me to concieve after treatment .Since I'm 43 years .I have to try with donor EGG .Can I get a baby after treatment Doctor: Hello,I would like to know why your doctor prescribed ATT, the anti-tuberculosis treatment, when you were diagnosed with non-tuberculous infection. I presume it was done as a safety precaution. You have to wait until the treatment is complete before you plan conception. If the endometrial tissue repair is good, your chances of successful implantation are increased. Though your ovarian reserve could be low considering your age, with ART, the assisted reproductive techniques, your chances are good.Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.Regards,Dr. Shanti Vennam
