Can Toxoplasmosis Infection Cause Spontaneous Abortion?
Question: can having house hold cats cause problem with pregnancy
Brief Answer:
Hi I think it can cause problem in pregnancy.
Detailed Answer:
Hi, welcome to healthcaremagic.
I think if the pregnant woman comes in contact with cats litter, it can lead to toxoplasma infection leading to pregnancy loss.
You can get a TORCH profile to confirm if toxoplasma infection is there or not. If IgM is high, it means there is toxoplasma infection.
Hope I have answered your question. If you have any other query, I will be happy to help.
