Welcome to HCM.
TT injection will not show any side effect on pregnancy.

Actually 2 doses of TT injection is mandatory for all pregnant women.

So, do not worry, it is not at all harmful.

Only thing is you should avoid another 2 doses if you are pregnant, remind it to your doctor .

Hope this will help you.
Thank you.
