Hello.

Thanks for writing to us.
Anti tubercular drugs are not likely to affect the fertility or the quality of sperms of your partner. You can safely plan your pregnancy while your partner is taking anti tubercular medicines.
There are no documented studies available to study the effect of these drugs on libido.
I hope this information has been both informative and helpful for you.

Regards,
