Can Tetanus Shots On Pregnant Women Result In Mutated Genes In Their Daughters?
My niece has been told that she has a mutated gene that prevents her from carrying a baby full term. She s had two miscarriages so far. Her mother had a tetanus shot when she was pregnant with my niece and thinks that might be the cause for the mutated gene. Do you have any info on this?
