Patient's question:
The male colleague has hepatitis B (minor positive), is planning to have a child, and is worried about passing the hepatitis B to the child. Hello, does the minor positive hepatitis B in the male partner affect the child?Doctor's answer:
If the man has hepatitis B, it will affect future childbirth because hepatitis B can be transmitted to the wife through sexual intercourse. If the wife becomes infected with hepatitis B again before pregnancy, there is a possibility of transmitting it to the child. Therefore, before marriage, if the wife does not have antibodies, it is best to get the hepatitis B vaccine early to produce antibodies before marrying and having children.Actually, having a liver disease is not scary. The patient should believe that they can overcome the illness. As long as the symptoms are detected in time and the treatment is appropriate, the chances of stabilizing the condition and recovering are very high.
