Patient's question:
I only found out in my 2005 health check that I had hepatitis B when I was young.Doctor's answer:
The hepatitis B minor positive indicates that the copies of the hepatitis B virus in the body have weakened, but the specific severity of the condition needs to be assessed through combined liver function tests and hepatitis B virus DNA tests. At the current level of medical technology, the treatment of hepatitis B, whether it is major positive or minor positive, has a very small possibility of achieving complete recovery (turning negative), and can only suppress the copies of the hepatitis B virus, keeping liver function within the normal range for a long period. The indicators for implementing antiviral treatment for hepatitis B minor positive are: Alanine aminotransferase (ALT) below 80, and hepatitis B virus DNA below 10 to the power of 4. If these standards are not met, treatment is not necessary.
