Dear member,
Thanks for writing to healthcare magic.
The TORCH TEST us for 4 different type of infection.
The IgM if negative then it means you have not acquired it in this pregnancy. So there is no active infection now.hence there is no harm to baby.
 you can write back with queries along with report.
Thanks
