Tentanus Inj. in pregnancy, platelet-7K

2017-09-27 15:03:37
I had been diagnosed with ITP almost 4 years ago. Now I'm pregnant and my platelet count continues to be below 10K. I've taken IVIG and Steroids but these had no effect on the platelet count so i discontinued steroids. Inspite of my platelet count going as low as 3k during the second trimester, i've never had any bleeding/ purpura marks. My gynae has advised me to take an Tetanus Injection now (during the 24th week). Is there any risk taking an intra-muscular injection with low platelet count?
