Planning a Baby  Discussion Forum

I also have been dioagnosed with TB in uterus 2nd time! I had been diagnosed in 2005- took ATT meds for 9 months , spoke to Dr Sadhna Desai in Mumbai who said u wasted 1 yr in taking meds for Tb as it does not hamper conception and after that the tests- both blood and a flourescent tissue test showed negative. So I had IVF thrice- but my endo thickness was low usually 6.4-7.1mm. Last IVF resulted in miscarraige. We went to another doc Dr Anoop Gupta who did Mycrobacterium tissue sample test which they say is positive. We have spent already 30-40K on tests here and it seems like we r going backwards. Does Tb really affects conception. Don' t think have patience for another round of ATT anti tb meds for atleast 3-6 months before TTC. Thinking of going to Dr Sadhna Desai and taking 2nd opinion. Has anybody got similar experience?
sowdha replied. Hi,
I read your post.....PLEASE go thro. the medicines for TB if you have been diagonised with it. I had 2 abortions becoz of it. First time i was pregnant normally but after 60 days i miscarried i was in no mood to look into the reports or collect it from the hospital itself. After sometime i went to another doctor and then underwent lot of other tests and then we went for IUI and in the third attempt i was pregnant throu IUI and again miscarried in the 60 th day. When we went for complete inspections we found tht i had TB of the uterus and i tok Medicines for 9 months and again after tht tried thro IUI for 3 times and finally got pregnant NORMALLY and my son is absolutely fine now.

so go for the medicines, I took it for 9 months and then try, it is beeter to wait rather than to feel happy tht you are pregnant and then loose it, i knw the pain so go for the medicines if it is found tht you have TB.

All the best,
