Trying to conceive since then but failed many rounds, recently my gynac found Gamma interferon TB antigen value 2.20 detected. Does it means that I have pelvic TB or I need to go for TB pcr. Or I can start Anti TB medicine And this is the reason for my infertility.

Hi.. Pelvic Tuberculosis is often over diagnosed in India and anti tuberculosis drugs are often misused.
Before starting anti tuberculosis treatment other clinical findings should be taken into account.
Now a days the recommended test for TB detection is geneXpert, which is available in many centre even free of cost in some designated centre. You can ask your doctor regarding same.
