Patient's question:
Currently, no girl has said that her family has hereditary ascites of the liver.Doctor's answer:
Hello, friend: Ascites is not hereditary. It is usually caused by liver cirrhosis and ascites due to chronic hepatitis B or C. The hepatitis B virus is highly contagious, with mother-to-child transmission being the main route of spread. The so-called hereditary liver cirrhosis was often familial hepatitis B, leading to liver cirrhosis and ascites caused by the hepatitis B virus. It is recommended to undergo an eight-item hepatitis test to rule out hepatitis B and C, and then determine whether treatment is needed and whether it is possible to have children. Wishing you good health!
