What should be paid attention to when breastfeeding with?

Patient's question:

What should be noted when hepatitis B carriers with positive can breastfeed?

Doctor's answer:

Hepatitis B with a high viral load is a period of relatively high transmissibility, and the chance of the child being infected will also be significantly increased. In your case, it is best not to breastfeed. If you want to breastfeed your child, it is recommended to first check your HBV-DNA and liver function. If both are normal, you can consider breastfeeding after implementing complete mother-child separation. Personally, I do not recommend breastfeeding for the sake of your child's health.
Additionally, during the treatment of hepatitis B with a high viral load, the patient's dietary condition and care are also very important. The patient must pay close attention to their diet, eat more light foods, and avoid unnecessary harm. I hope the above answer can help you. Thank you.
