As an obstetrician, I'd like to know your age please before I give a reply: the reason is very simple- if you are below 28, I'd suggest a medical MTP ( termination of pregnancy) ; treatment of typhoid requires antibiotics that are contraindicated in first few months of pregnancy. However if you are 30 plus, one has to think of the fact that chances of conceiving are less, hence we have to treat the disease differently.
