What does a negative IgM and positive IgG for rubella mean?

Patient's question:

What does it mean if my Rubella IgM is negative and IgG is positive? Is there any risk during my first month of pregnancy?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, the clinical significance of antibody IgM being negative: no active infection, but potential infection cannot be ruled out. The clinical significance of antibody IgG being positive: indicates that the pregnant woman has had this virus infection in the past or has been vaccinated.
