Hello dear,I understand your concern.In my opinion if the period is delayed do a urine pregnancy test.This test gives good results if done a week after missed period.The termination of pregnancy by medicines is possible upto 6-7 weeks.Abortion can be done in a TB patient.Dont worry.
Best regards...Dr.Srilatha
