Yes, tuberculosis can cause a miscarriage. This is because the TB bacteria enter the bloodstream and travel to different parts of the body, including reproductive organs. In pregnant women, these bacteria can cause an infection in the uterus or placenta that increases their risk of having a premature birth or stillbirth. Additionally, if left untreated, TB may lead to high fevers which could potentially interfere with fetal development and endanger both mother and baby's health. It is important for expecting mothers to be screened for TB during pregnancy so that any potential risks are identified early on and treated promptly before they have an adverse effect on the fetus.
