Brief Answer:
She is having endometrial tuberculosis and she has to take these drugs.
Detailed Answer:
Thanks for your question on Health Care Magic.
I can understand your concern.
Your wife is having endometrial tuberculosis and she has to take anti tubercular drugs for atleast 6-8 months.
She has prescribed correct medicines.
So give these drugs.
These drugs are hepatotoxic. But this is not true for all patients. And hence we need to check liver function test periodically.
And yes, she can take IVF treatment after completion of course.
And with proper treatment for sufficient duration, TB can be cured and hence spread to other organs can be prevented.
Hope I have solved your query.
I will be happy to help you further.
Wishing good health to your wife.
Thanks.

Brief Answer:
No need for repeat biopsy after completion of treatment.
Detailed Answer:
Thanks for your follow up question on Health Care Magic.
I can understand your concern.
Answer to your 1st question.
No need for repeat endometrial biopsy. After completion of treatment, recovery is measured with improvement in clinical symptoms like absence of fever, increased appetite, increased oral intake, weight gain etc, normal ESR (erythrocyte sedimentation rate), normal uterine imaging etc.
So no need for repeat endometrial biopsy.
Answer to your 2nd question.
Tuberculosis can affect anyone. It affects almost all organs of the body except nails and hair. She is having extrapulmonary tb. And reactivation of dormant tb bacilli is the most common cause for this. This can be due to stress, tension, poor oral intake, reduced immunity, poor genital hygiene etc.
Answer to your 3rd question.
She should take high protein diet like pulses, vegetables, milk and it's products like cheese, butter and paneer. Avoid oily and spicy food. This is to prevent drug induced gastritis. Ask her to drink plenty of fluids orally.
Hope I have solved your query.
If you are not having further queries, then please close the conversation and rate my answer.

Brief Answer:
Red,orange color of urine is mostly due to rifampicin.
Detailed Answer:
Thanks for your follow up question on Health Care Magic.
I can understand your concern.
Change in urine colour is due to rifampicin. Rifampicin is red, pink coloured molecule and so it gives red, pink, orange colour to body secretions like urine. So no need to worry much for this.
Please let me know
1. Does she have fever?
2. Does she have burning micturation?
I am asking these to rule out urine infection because this can also cause red colored urine.
Please reply me answers of above asked questions, so that I can guide you better.
I will be happy to help you further.

Brief Answer:
No need to worry for UTI. Urine color is due to rifampicin .
Detailed Answer:
Thanks for your follow up question on Health Care Magic.
No need to worry for Urinary tract infection. Urine color is due to rifampicin.
Other things to remember is measurement of weight.
Stable weight or weight gain is good sign while on AKT. But weight loss should demand further evaluation.
So weight monitoring every monthly should be done.
One important thing I was forgot to ask.
What is her weight? Anti tubercular drugs should be given according to the weight. If this is not followed than outcomes are miserable.
Also tell me if she is taking any painkiller or birth control pills.
Please reply me answers of above asked questions, so that I can guide you better.

Brief Answer:
Metformin is safe with AKT.
Detailed Answer:
Thanks for your follow up question on Health Care Magic.
I can understand your concern.
Metformin is safe with AKT. No need to worry for this. But it can cause gastric upset like constipation. So better to drink plenty of fluids orally to avoid constipation and problem in piles.
Since how many days she is having PCOD (poly cystic ovarian disease).
Tuberculosis is the most common cause for infertility in XXXXXXX PCOD is 2nd most common. And she is having both of them.
But with successful treatment, she may conceive normally.
In rare case, TB can transmit from husband to wife.
If husband is having genitourinary tuberculosis than tb bacilli can secret in semen. And from this infected semen, wife can get endometrial tuberculosis.
But this way of transmission is very rare.
Transmission from wife to husband is not possible. But better to avoid unprotected Intercourse and use condom.
I want to ask you some personal questions. If you feel uncomfortable to answer them, you can surely deny.
1. Have you checked your semen analysis to rule out male part of infertility?
2. Do you have any abnormality in it?
3. Have you checked for genitourinary tuberculosis?
4. Since how many time you both try to conceive?
Please reply me answers of above asked questions, so that I can guide you better.
