Patient's question:
I had a hospital check for hepatitis B surface antigen, hepatitis B e antigen, and hepatitis B core antibody: hepatitis B surface antigen 223.600 ng/ml, hepatitis B e antigen 1.360 peiu/ml, hepatitis B core antibody 1.230 peiu/ml. The DNA value is 1.758x10^7 IU/ml. I am currently breastfeeding my child. The doctor prescribed me Ant colony liver nurturing capsules. Is this medicine effective? Is it okay to breastfeed the child? Is there any specific medicine? Thank you.Doctor's answer:
Your condition must be treated actively and correctly to accelerate self-healing or healing, and to ensure rapid recovery, in order to avoid prolonged illness leading to further progression of the condition. Long-term hepatitis B infection tends to evolve along the path of "hepatitis B - cirrhosis - liver cancer," which is what we commonly refer to as the "third stage of hepatitis B." Hepatitis B is difficult to heal on its own because the vast majority of hepatitis B patients have immune tolerance and do not produce an autoimmune response to the hepatitis B virus (HBV), which results in the condition becoming chronic and difficult to cure with general medications. Therefore, adopting the correct treatment method to compel the body's immune system to produce an autoimmune response to the hepatitis B virus is the key to rapid recovery from hepatitis B.
