Can people with hepatitis B have children?

Patient's question:

I am a woman. The hepatitis B two pairs of half test shows positive for the "" (HBeAg positive), but my liver function is normal. The hepatitis B DNA quantification test result shows a viral load of 20,807,000. Can I get pregnant and have a healthy baby in this condition?

Doctor's answer:

According to your description, it is recommended not to get pregnant with hepatitis B surface antigen-positive (HBsAg-positive) for the time being, as the fetus can transmit the hepatitis B virus through the placenta. This way, the baby will be infected with hepatitis B at birth. It is advised to first treat the HBsAg-positive condition before getting pregnant, so that your baby will be completely protected from infection. We hope this information is helpful to you and wish you a happy family.
For severe hepatitis B surface antigen-positive patients, it is recommended to seek medical attention promptly and follow the doctor's advice for timely treatment. Avoid changing medications arbitrarily, as this may have the opposite effect on the treatment outcome.
