Patient's question:
Pregnant for three and a half months, blood test shows hepatitis virus. Hello, does it affect the fetus? Can the child be kept? Can maternal-fetal transmission be performed? If it is performed, will the child still have problems?Doctor's answer:
If your liver function is normal, you can focus on early pregnancy. However, during pregnancy, it is essential to have regular liver function tests. If abnormalities are detected, treatment should be administered under the guidance of a doctor. Within two hours after the baby is born, administer the hepatitis B immune globulin. If you are an HBeAg-positive patient, the baby should also receive the third dose at 15 and 30 days after birth. For HBeAg-negative patients, the third dose is not necessary, but the hepatitis B vaccine should be administered promptly to the baby. This approach achieves a transmission rate of 95% to 97%. After implementing this intervention, breastfeeding can be continued.
