During the Preconceptional period and even in first trimester of pregnancy, we definitely do torch screening to detect any active infection or old exposure to the particular virus so that we take precautions accordingly

We do torch and even advise rubella vaccine to all who are no immunized. And in our country usually most people will be torch positive, as most infection have no symptoms in adult though harmful to the baby. Most people will have past infection and not active infection. Past infection is not harmful to the baby only if anyone gets infected during pregnancy or 1 month prior to conception then only torch will harm the foetus. If you have any other query please contact.
