Women should allow 90 days after Covid-19 vaccine before getting pregnant

Women who wish to become pregnant should wait for a period of not less than 90 after the second dose of the Covid-19 vaccine, Saudi Arabia’s Health Ministry said.

The ministry made the clarification in a statement on its Twitter account while rejecting the authenticity of reports circulating on social media that women who receive the vaccine must avoid pregnancy for a full year.

The ministry reaffirmed that there is no evidence to show that Covid-19 would have any adverse effect on reproduction.

The ministry reiterated that pregnant women are among the segments of the society who are prevented from taking vaccination against Covid-19.
