Patient's question:
I am very scared when this happens. I often have lower abdominal pain and don't know how to solve it, so I came here to consult. Can the hepatitis B vaccine be administered during pregnancy?Doctor's answer:
From your description, it seems that you are trying to get pregnant, but your body does not have hepatitis B antibodies. In such a case, it is acceptable to get vaccinated before pregnancy, but it should be avoided after pregnancy.Advice: Since you have already taken folic acid tablets for 3 months, indicating that you are preparing to get pregnant, getting one dose of the hepatitis B vaccine now will not be very effective in stimulating your body to produce antibodies. Therefore, if you get vaccinated now, it may lead to the need for vaccination during pregnancy, which can have adverse effects on pregnancy. In this case, you can choose not to get vaccinated as long as there are no hepatitis B carriers in your family and you avoid eating out. This can help prevent the transmission of hepatitis B, which will not be harmful to the fetus or the pregnant woman. Therefore, you can choose not to get vaccinated.
Additionally, your anemia needs to be corrected because pregnancy can make it easier for anemia to develop.
