 [ Symptoms ] is it safe for a woman to get a tattoo while pregnant [ Disease ] as a physician we do not always know how tatoos affect patients however i am conservative when it comes to issues that may affect patients without all the information having said that i would not do it i just do not think it is that important to potentially risk pregnancy loss  there is a risk of infection which although most often is local could become more extensive in the blood stream which could affect the pregnancy just do not do it
