Patient's question:
Doctor, hello!I am a young woman of childbearing age, and I plan to have children in the next one or two years. However, my father has hepatitis B (minor positive). Due to concerns about transmission, my family insists that I get vaccinated against hepatitis B. Please ask, will getting vaccinated now have any adverse effects on future pregnancy and the fetus? Urgently looking forward to your reply. Thank you!
Doctor's answer:
First, you need to get an HBsAg and anti-HBs test to check if your hepatitis B core antibody is positive. If it is positive, you do not need to get vaccinated. If it is negative, you can get the full course of vaccination, which will have no impact on future fertility.
