Hello
I appreciate your concern
My answer is Yes, TB can cause infertility by product blockage in fallopian tubes which carries ovum from ovary to uterus.
TB causes adhesion and inflammation of fallopian tubes leading to tubal block
in such a case ART ( artifical reproductive therapy ) is advised like artificial insemination or embryo transfer
Hope this answers your question
Best wishes
