Abstract

Pregnancy is a time of joy and anticipation, but when tuberculosis (TB) enters the picture, it can bring worries and questions.This article explores the impact of TB during pregnancy. When a pregnant woman gets TB, there are risks involved. It’s important to detect TB early, and this can be done through regular check-ups. Once TB is found, treatment is available, and it’s safe for both the mother and baby. Prenatal care is a must during this time to monitor and manage the disease. Support from doctors, family, and the community is vital. Education about TB and pregnancy empowers women to make informed decisions. In conclusion, while TB during pregnancy may seem challenging, with the right care and support, many women have safely journeyed through it and delivered healthy babies. It’s a reminder that even in tough times, medical care can make a big difference in the lives of mothers and their precious little ones.
