What to do if pregnant during the active replication phase of the hepatitis B virus?

Patient's question:

What should I do during the viral replication period of hepatitis B carrier (chronic hepatitis B) pregnancy? I am a hepatitis B carrier (chronic hepatitis B) and I am now pregnant. What should I do? How can I ensure my child is healthy?

Doctor's answer:

Hepatitis B patients can undergo conception before and during pregnancy. They should regularly undergo liver function tests during pregnancy and seek timely treatment if abnormalities are detected. Within 24 hours after birth, the infant should be given hepatitis B immune globulin.
In addition, during the treatment for chronic hepatitis B (), in addition to timely medical intervention, the patient's dietary condition and psychological state are also particularly important. Patients must avoid excessive mental stress and worry to prevent unnecessary interference with the complete recovery from chronic hepatitis B.
