My husband has chronic hepatitis B, and I am currently pregnant. He can pass it on to the fetus.

Patient's question:

Hello, I would like to ask if my husband has chronic hepatitis B (). I am currently pregnant, and I am worried if he can pass it to the fetus. How can I prevent it from being transmitted to the fetus? I am fine. Additional question: Hello, I have antibodies, and I have also received preventive shots.

Doctor's answer:

Hello, generally if you have a history of hepatitis B, it is recommended to undergo routine liver function tests and HBV DNA tests before pregnancy. If these two indicators are normal and meet the conditions for continuing the pregnancy, you can continue with the pregnancy. If they are abnormal, it is not advisable for you to continue the pregnancy. It is recommended that you go to the hospital for liver function and HBV DNA tests. Based on the test results, follow the guidance of your doctor to implement effective prevention. During the 7th, 8th, and 9th months of pregnancy, you can receive hepatitis B immune globulin injections. After the baby is born, within 24 hours, administer hepatitis B immune globulin and the hepatitis B vaccine to ensure effective prevention.
