Patient's question:
My sister has hepatitis B (small three positive), she just gave birth to a baby, can she breastfeed the baby? What should she pay attention to?Doctor's answer:
Hepatitis B can be transmitted through sexual contact, blood, mother-to-child transmission, and everyday contact as well as through the patient's body fluids. It is recommended that if your liver function and hepatitis B DNA are abnormal, you should not breastfeed your child. Additionally, after the child is born, it is necessary to promptly administer the hepatitis B vaccine and immune globulin. There are many treatments for liver disease, but since the symptoms of patients differ, the treatment methods also vary. Therefore, it is essential for patients to receive a prompt diagnosis so that they can be treated accordingly.
