Hepatitis b shots and others?

Question

i am going to the doctors monday to get a series of shots (i need them for my course in college) will they do a pregnancy test before i get my shots....and also if they didnt and i am pregnant will the shots hurt the baby

Answer 1

Yes, they will hurt the baby.  Hep B has thimerisol (mercury) in it.

Answer 2

Yes, mention something to the doctor! Simply say, "There is a chance that I could be pregnant, so could we do a pregnancy test just to be sure before I get these shots, I wouldn't want something to go wrong." It will just take a simple blood test so go ahead and ask. Good luck with everything!
