Detailed Answer:
Hello,

Thanks for writing to us. Here, I give you a complete guideline regarding your query:

1) First thing, you should complete your full 9 months course of Lymph node TB treatment with above drug regimens.

2) You will plan for pregnancy after 3 months of completed treatment if all test results are within normal range and you get regular period.

3) Before planning to pregnancy, you must do some tests like:

a) LFT (Liver Function Test) - It must be normal with all parameters to avoid complication during pregnancy.

b) AFB smear & culture and Mycobacterium TB PCR - To exclude reinfection and pelvic or genital TB.

c) One pelvic ultrasound scan to check reproductive organs overall and HSG test (Hysterosalpingography) to detect tubal blockage (if any).

4) If all above test reports are normal, then it will be easier for planning a baby and avoid certain risk of growing fetus.

5) Take balanced diet with more green vegetables, protein supplements, eat fresh fruits and drink more water for better systemic circulation.

6) Start to take folic acid and vitamin-E supplement for at least 3 months prior to conception. It is helpful to develop better fetal nervous system and avoid Neural Tube Defect disorder.

Detailed Answer:
Hello XXXXX,

Thanks for follow up query.

Yes, first you should undergo all 3 tests that I have mentioned in my earlier text after completion of TB treatment. If all results are normal and period is regular for consecutive 2 to 3 months, then you can definitely try to conceive after 2 months of completed treatment. Your recent LFT and AFB- smear & culture report are also fine as per information.

You can take folic acid tab like SYSFOL or FOLVITE and Vitamin-E supplement like EVION or VITEOLIN cap regularly for consecutive 3 months before and after pregnancy. Along with, you must take protein XXXXXXX diet with more vegetables and fruits to recover from general weakness & increase body immunity.

Hope, it will help for your information. If you don't have any other query, then you can close the discussion.

All the best. Good luck.

Regards,
Dr Soumen
