Patient's question:
Several years ago, I was diagnosed with hepatitis B, but my liver function has always been normal. The doctor said I didn't need to take medication, just focus on rest and diet, and have regular check-ups!Doctor's answer:
Hello, hepatitis B patients who are pregnant should pay attention to the following:1. Has your liver function changed? Liver function should be within the normal range.
2. You need to closely monitor liver function and HBV-DNA tests. As the fetus grows in the womb and consumes more nutrients, your liver's workload increases, so you must be more cautious.
3. To prevent mother-to-child transmission, you should start receiving monthly injections of hepatitis B immune globulin (200–400 IU per dose) three months before delivery. After the baby is born, they should receive one injection of hepatitis B immune globulin within 48 hours, followed by another injection after two weeks. Additionally, combining this with the hepatitis B vaccine can effectively protect the infant.
