After that i again did a torch test as doctor told . I got the report yesterday and the report is toxoplasma Igg 47 toxoplasma igm 0.07, Rubella igg 13.7 rubella igm 0.36, Cmv igg 222 Cmv igm 2.31, Herpes igg 3.43, Herpes igm 0.13.

hi,
thank you for your query.
TORCH is a group of perinatal infections which affect the fetus.
these infections if treated thoroughly once have lesser chance of repeating itself.
hence i would advise you to complete the anti-biotic regimen advised by the doctor and also screen for TORCH the next time you start trying to get pregnant.
thank you,
wishing you good health
