Do MMR Booster Vaccinations Affect Your Fertility Levels?

Hello. I had an mmr booster July 19th. Prior to that my husband and I were trying to conceive but stopped as recommended with the mmr vaccine. I am now 10 days late on my period with four negative urine hcg tests and low back pain. Does the vaccine affect periods, could I be pregnant with a false negative?

Hello,

Ideally, it is recommended to wait for 28 days after taking the MMR vaccine. Presently, you have negative pregnancy tests. You had been trying for a baby.

HCG shows up faster in the blood than in the urine, wait for some time & get urine as well as blood test done for the presence of HCG to confirm pregnancy.

If you can't wait, you can visit a gynecologist & get physically examined, get a pelvic examination done or an USG (Uterus) done to confirm pregnancy.

In the meantime avoid stress, take nutritious homemade food. Stay away from addictions if any.

Regards,
Dr. Nupur K, General & Family Physician
