Patient's Query
Hi doctor,
I am a 32-year-old female. Recently, I got tested for rubella. I checked it in three places, and they showed different results. I am testing it as I am willing to get conceived. My first test result showed IgG of 6, and the other result showed IgG of 5. All the three results showed a negative IgM. When I was 11 years old, I got a vaccination for rubella twice. Please suggest.
Hi,
Welcome to icliniq.com.
I have gone through the attachment (attachment removed to protect the patient's identity). As per the laboratory reports, one thing is clear that you are not immune to rubella as the titers of IgG are below the required level. You are in a safer zone as you have been appropriately vaccinated in childhood. In rare cases, due to numerous reasons, we do not develop complete immunity. Do not plan for pregnancy now. Get re-vaccinated again, check the titers, and then think about conceiving.
