In vitro fertilization outcomes in previously cured tuberculosis patients: a retrospective study

Cured tuberculosis did not affect the primary assisted reproductive outcomes in infertile patients using IVF protocol. However, in ICSI protocol, tuberculosis had a negative impact on pregnancy outcomes in infertile women, even with treatment. The final pregnancy outcome of frozen-thaw cycle was worse than that of fresh cycle in IVF protocol but opposite in ICSI. If treated, there were no variations in pregnancy outcomes among different tuberculosis types.
