Assessing The Impact of Post-Tuberculosis on Reproductive Health in
Kampala, Uganda
REFNo: HS7745ES
Aim 1 — To assess the impact of a tuberculosis diagnosis on fertility by quantifying and comparing pregnancy incidence rates in women of reproductive age during the pre- and post-TB diagnosis periods.
Hypothesis 1.1: Compared with the pre-TB diagnosis period, the pregnancy incidence rate in the post-TB diagnosis period will be lower (incidence rate ratio [IRR] < 1.0).
Hypothesis 1.2: The pregnancy incidence rate in the immediate post-treatment period will be lower than the pregnancy incidence rate in the later post-treatment period.
Aim 2 — To estimate the prevalence of reproductive morbidity and the proportion of pregnancies resulting in adverse pregnancy outcomes among women of reproductive age following a tuberculosis diagnosis.
Aim 3 — To explore women’s knowledge, perceptions, and lived experiences regarding the influence of post-TB sequelae on reproductive health.
