Does having tuberculosis cause a partner's menstrual period to stop?

Patient's question:

Can men with tuberculosis cause their girlfriends to have irregular periods?

Doctor's answer:

Tuberculosis can cause menstrual disorders or amenorrhea. The drugs used in anti-tuberculosis treatment can also cause this reaction in a small number of people. Liver protection treatment should be intensified. Currently, attention should be paid to nutrition, consuming more high-protein and high-energy foods. Recovery is possible after stopping the medication. The occurrence of menstrual disorders not only affects women's lives but can also lead to gynecological diseases. Therefore, it is best to undergo an ultrasound examination in the gynecology department of a hospital to identify the cause and receive targeted treatment. Daily, it is important to drink more water and pay attention to personal hygiene.
