Is antibody IgG positive for hepatitis E?

Patient's question:

Patient is a female with good health status, normal liver function, positive hepatitis B surface antibody, normal hepatitis A antibody-IgM negative, positive hepatitis E virus antibody-IgG, and negative hepatitis E virus antibody-IgM.

Doctor's answer:

Based on the information you provided, it can be inferred that you were infected with the hepatitis A virus and hepatitis E virus at some point in time, or you may have had hepatitis A and hepatitis E. This does not necessarily mean lifelong automatic immunity. It mainly depends on your immunity. However, in the future, your chances of getting sick will be lower than those of a healthy person. I hope this helps.
Hepatitis E is very serious, and patients are advised to seek timely medical treatment. It is hoped that patients can follow their doctors' advice for symptomatic treatment. At the same time, they should pay attention to their own care, maintain a proper diet, and avoid worsening the condition.
