Can IVF Treatment Be Undertaken When Suffering From TB?

My name is Poonam. My age is 36 and weight is 58 Kg. I have taken ATT treatment at the age of 32 years. Now, I am going for IVF treatment from AIMS Hospital. Doctor advised to go for Blood Test of various Tuberclosis tests but they were negative. Then as per the advise of the Dr., II went for PCR for M. Tuberculosis (Sample-EA) from AIMS Hospital. The result of this test is Positive. Now, sir, please advise me whether to go for IVF Treatment or first to take course of medicines for Tuberclulosis treatment?

Hi Poonam, i will be answering your question, hope this will be helpful to you.

First you should finish the ATT and then go for IVF, i will not suggest you to undergo IVF while you will be taking ATT as there will be risk of failure of IVF or else there might be some defect due to ATT.

Take proper nutritious diet and take medicines at time. dont miss ATT, even a single tab.

Get well soon.

Thanks
