Like the answers? Consult privately with the doctor of your choice
Bcg vaccine is usually given at birth and most likely u would have recieved it
Taking it now during pregnancy wouldnt serve any purpose
Though you can ask your medical provider to give u prophylaxis treatment for contact with mtb but also ensure you let them know you are pregnant
