    Pihu,
    I remember reading tb testing related threads in the past. Some people have conceived after taking medicines. Please check the old threads. You might get some clue.
    All the best.

    Basically, TB is an infection which is not very easy to diagnose using regular tests. There could be false negative or positive results. PCR is a test where they look for the DNA of the organism that one is looking for - in this case for the TB-causing Mycobacterium tuberculosis. For this they will take a small piece of the endometrium and test it for the bacterium using PCR test. The test is very specific and sensitive.

    For the procedure for taking a sample of the endometrium, check out this link: Endometrial Biopsy

    Endometrial biopsy is not that painful if you relax and cooperate.

    Earlier a mild anesthesia was used but not sure how it is today. Though i assume with advanced technology it is easier.

    It is valuable information and must be very precautious for those expecting pregnant.
