Can hepatitis B carriers have children?

Patient's question:

Hello, I am an HBV carrier. My wife wants to have a child. Please ask: What should be paid attention to before pregnancy?

Doctor's answer:

Guidance: Cesarean section, no breastfeeding, newborns should receive the hepatitis B vaccine at 0, 1, and 6 months (30mg each time), which can prevent 70% of cases. Pregnant women are recommended to receive the high-efficiency hepatitis B immune globulin after the 7th, 8th, and 9th months of pregnancy. After birth, the child should receive the first dose of high-efficiency hepatitis B immune globulin and 30mcg of hepatitis B vaccine within 24 hours. Subsequently, at the 2nd and 3rd months, the child should receive the high-efficiency hepatitis B immune globulin, and at the 6th month, the 30mcg hepatitis B vaccine. This approach generally maximizes the likelihood of preventing transmission to the child.
