A member asked:

Does masturbation during tb treatment can cause tb to spread in female genital organs or does tb cause infertility if masturbate during treatment?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

No: Masturbation will have no effect on TB. It will not cause it to spread. TB can spread from the lungs to the fallopian tubes through the blood stream. If there is TB in the tubes, it could cause infertility.
