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?
