Patient's question:
I was diagnosed with chronic hepatitis B about seven or eight years ago. At first, I didn't pay much attention to it, but my alanine aminotransferase levels increased three times, and each time I was hospitalized for treatment. Now, an ultrasound shows increased echoes. After taking Fuvir for two years, my previous chronic hepatitis B has now turned into positive results for the first and fifth items. When should I stop taking the medication, and can my wife get pregnant while I am on medication?Doctor's answer:
Hepatitis B is generally transmitted within families, spreading the hepatitis B virus. It can cause symptoms such as fatigue and abdominal pain. It is recommended to take medication for treatment, pay attention to rest and avoid overexertion, and regularly monitor liver function. In addition to timely treatment for chronic hepatitis B, patients should maintain a positive attitude to face the disease. Only in this way can they reduce their immunity and strengthen their belief in fighting the illness. At the same time, they should pay close attention to their dietary care, focusing on light foods and avoiding stimulating and cold foods, believing that this will surely drive away chronic hepatitis B.
