Diagnosed With Uterine TB. Was In Treatment With AKT. Conceived With After That. Any Side Effects For The Fetus?
Dear Doctor, My sister-in-law was diagnosed to have uterine TB. she was on treatment with AKT. She is married for 15 years but she didn't had any child. after this treatment of AKT for TB she has conceived and is 3 months pregnant. what are the side effects of AKT treatment on her and the feotus. Also tell us about the precautions to be taken till the delivery of baby and will the baby have any defects or anomaly. We are not in position to get the pregnancy terminated. Also what test can be carried out to know about the defects or anomaly. Please guide.
Hello thanks for your query. It is alright to take AKT with pregnancy. Please do not worry on that score, and there is no indication for termination of pregnancy. There is no evidence of any anomalies studied with AKT during pregnancy. Take regular folic acid supplements. Have routine ultrasounds and genetic testing done during course of pregnancy as recommended by your obstetrician. Take care.
