Patient's question:
I've been married for a year and am about to give birth, but I've just been diagnosed with hepatitis. Will it be contagious to my husband? Is the baby inside me already infected with hepatitis? What should I do? Will the child be alright?Doctor's answer:
Hello, if a is diagnosed with hepatitis and it's not severe, she should immediately receive the hepatitis B vaccine and hepatitis B globulin at the time of childbirth. This is something you can rest assured about—doctors will administer these to every child. The most important thing is not to breastfeed, but to directly feed the child and avoid close contact with the child. Pay attention to separating meals.
